Event Description
Mountains May Depart

Mountains May Depart is an epically scaled canvas, a heartbreaking prayer for the restoration of what has been lost in the name of progress. In Fenyang, China in 1999, on the cusp of the capitalist explosion: Shen Tao has two suitors—Zhang, an entrepreneur-to-be, and his best friend Liangzi, who makes his living in the local coal mine. Shen Tao decides, with a note of regret, to marry Zhang, a man with a future. Flash-forward 15 years: the couple’s son Dollar is paying a visit to his now-estranged mother, and everyone and everything seems to have grown more distant in time and space… and then further ahead in time, to even greater distances. In Chinese with subtitles.
