An Elephant Sitting Still (大象席地而坐). dir. Hu Bo (胡波). 2018

Written, directed and edited by Hu Bo, An Elephant Sitting Still is the novelist-turned-director’s first and last film. Hu committed suicide on 12 October 2017 after months of wearying negotiations with his producers who eventually decided to remove Hu from the copyright ownership of the film.

230 minutes long, the film is about four nobodies in a rural town in inland China. Dusky, despondent, hopeless and stark, it seems that a soul is born only to be forced into living a philistine life full of hatred and pain. A rumor goes that there is an elephant in a zoo in Manzhouli, however people try to make it stand, it just stubbornly sits still. The protagonists, refusing to fall into degradation, sense hope upon hearing the rumor. 

Offering a look into the new China, Hu Bo poignantly pointed out the hopelessness and anxiety felt by many young people post-2008. After all, who can actually tell which side of the screen is more depressing?
