Danwei Choice Cuts brings you work from up and coming Chinese filmmakers and DV documentary producers. This time we present Beijing Jam, a short film by Lois Xiang about cars, traffic jams and road rage.
It’s a visual essay that starts from historical footage showing the changes on Beijing’s roads and ends with interviews with a parking attendant who was nearly run over by an enraged motorist who refused to pay the parking fee.
The video is also viewable on Tudou, which should be faster if you’re in China. All Danwei TV programs are also archived at Danwei.tv.
