encounters across the vast and diverse nation, <em>CHINA 354<\/em> opens the doors to the world of everyday life and the thoughts of the Chinese people through numerology, symbolism, and the rhythms of daily routines.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-ccp-border-bottom=\"0px none #000000\" data-ccp-padding-bottom=\"0px\" data-ccp-border-between=\"0px none #000000\" data-ccp-padding-between=\"0px\">Typically presented in an exhibition format with the videos playing at the same time, this special screening presents a thoughtful selection of these minutes of curiosity and connection, allowing viewers to follow the director on his journey through China&#8217;s 31 provinces. Initially conceived as a daily visual journal, the work grew with each moment of reflection, from perceptions on the passing of time, to the relationship between viewer and the viewed. Contrasting the deluge of short-form video that now dominates our social media algorithms, the one-minute limitation of the videos became motivation to engage deeply with each moment to extract the essence of every story &#8211; to pay close attention to each irreplaceable moment.<\/p>\n<p data-ccp-border-bottom=\"0px none #000000\" data-ccp-padding-bottom=\"0px\" data-ccp-border-between=\"0px none #000000\" data-ccp-padding-between=\"0px\">Through this meditation, the documentary film which started as study of China also became study of self. As the director notes: &#8220;We look for ourselves in other people\u2019s stories. Scenes from the neighborhood street and the conversation with people are a realtime cinematic experience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Admission is free.
