CANNES' DIRECTORS FORTNIGHT WINNER!
Mainland master Jia Zhangke scales new heights with Mountains May Depart. At once an intimate drama and a decades-spanning epic that leaps from the recent past to the present to the speculative near-future, Jia's new film is an intensely moving study of how China's economic boom and the culture of materialism it has spawned has affected the bonds of family, tradition, and love.
“Few filmmakers working today look as deeply at the changing world as Mr. Jia does, or make the human stakes as vivid.” - Manohla Dargis, New York Times
“Whatever Jia shows us and wherever he takes us, we're always aware of being in the hands of one of the contemporary world's great filmmakers.” - Godfrey Cheshire, RogerEbert.com
“Enormously touching, highlighted by Jia's rapturous image-making and a luminous central performance by the director's regular muse (and wife), Zhao Tao.” - Scott Foundas, Variety

In this deeply personal documentary, a family, searching for a new perspective, leaves the comforts of home to live for 9 months, with their three young children, in the remote wilderness of the Canadian North. They spend the long northern winter living in a small cabin with no road access, no electricity, no running water, no internet and not a single watch or clock.
