After "The Intruder," Wang Xiaoshuai is finally preparing to direct a new project. Unlike previous works, this time he will helm his first documentary titled "My China." Recently, director Wang Xiaoshuai appeared at the Incheon Docs Port documentary project market with his wife and producer Liu Xuan. Wang Xiaoshuai revealed that this documentary has a runtime of 90 minutes and represents a personal journey for him. He will appear as the main character for the first time, following his family's migration and societal changes through his footsteps and perspective, recounting the realities and histories that have taken place on Chinese soil. In a media interview, Wang Xiaoshuai stated, "This time, I am a 'newbie' in documentaries. The changes in China are so rapid that many things will soon disappear from people's view. Documentaries serve as a witnessing and recording tool, and I feel it is my duty." From a personal perspective, Wang Xiaoshuai expressed that he wants to showcase the evolution of an ordinary Chinese family through this film. One narrative thread follows his father's family, starting from Qingdao in Shandong, passing through Dandong in Liaoning, and then heading south to Hefei in Anhui, following his father's footsteps. The other thread follows his mother's family from Jiaxing and Shanghai in Zhejiang, traveling north to Beijing, then through Taiyuan, Nanjing, Shanghai, Jiading, and Nantong, ultimately converging in Hefei, creating a circle in central and eastern China. At the same time, the director will revisit the filming locations of "Seventeen Bikes" in Beijing, which has been his longest residence. His camera captures quiet young people in cubicles, motionless workers amidst the factory noise, confused crowds in the stock market, disappearing natural villages, and the hurried emergence of new rural areas. All these mundane images present a contemporary Chinese social landscape that Wang Xiaoshuai is concerned about. The director mentioned that this film is an experimental fusion of moving images and still pictures. It differs from traditional documentaries by aiming to present the feeling of photography through dynamic imagery. In the trailer, we hear Wang Xiaoshuai’s voiceover asking, "Is this China?" "Is this present-day China? Past China? Or future China?" The unresponsive visuals echo his questions, perhaps providing the audience with an opportunity for dialogue. Notably, in June this year, Wang Xiaoshuai’s company, Dongchun (Shanghai) Film Co., announced its establishment. It is reported that the company has begun commercializing its film projects, and Wang Xiaoshuai himself has become a producer for commercial endeavors. However, regarding his own creations, he does not wish to be swept away by the currents of the commercial market, remaining focused on exploring a craftsman spirit, meticulously crafting "My China." It is reported that "My China" is still in the production stage but has been selected for various international documentary project markets, including the Amsterdam International Documentary Festival (IDFA), the world’s most important documentary platform. The film is co-produced by Beijing Dongchun Cultural Communication Co., Ltd. and Chinese Shadows, and is expected to complete all project markets by June 2017.
