Saw it at CPH:DOX. Really beautiful pictures. I thought it was a bit too stereotypically European, but then I spoke with someone who lives in China, and he said a lot of filmfans in China were over the moon at how different it seemed from typical Chinese docs.
You all NEED to see Lost & Beautiful, btw. One of very best films of the year.

Saw a real surprise, the 4-and-a-half hour film The Family by Chinese-Australian Liu Shumin. Sorta an expansive Tokyo Story, an elderly couple traveling around China, visiting their kids and revisiting their past. Amateur actors. But wow, at the imagery. Incredible all around. Overlong, but then again, it's a debut. This guy could get big!
Some clips in this video, but no real trailer yet.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQN38Ps_rZA

The Wandering Earth looks like some preposterous mad fun from the trailer.

how big is wandering earth in the outside world? pacific rim-type hype or more restrained? the chatter around it has been interesting but i assumed it was like wolf warrior where nobody outside of the prc ever saw it.i know it'll never show in tokyo and i'll probably end up catching it on an hna flight into beijing some day.

Not seen it mentioned once in Anglosphere media, it was a US/Chinese twitter poster who highlighted it to me.
