Yu zhou tan suo bian ji bu (2021)

Really sincere

It's a really humorous film that treats it's characters with grace and understanding. The humor may not be for everyone but if you are a fan of mockumentaries ND sci-fi it's 100% worth watching. The movie is also a love letter to western China. Having traveled through almost all of China's western provinces, it was so immersive to relive some of these forests, mountains, and country villages. I love that the movie doesn't sugar coat the area and instead showcases the natural beauty of the region. It's also a gorgeous film as it seems like it was shot on location primarily and really made use of the mockumentary format to make an extremely immersive movie for how goofy it is. Overall I think it's really fun and very heartwarming watching this odyssey of a movie.
