Description Director Wang Chong shoots the play in its hour-long entirety, and the audience watches two scenes unfold at once: crew members shooting live, and a huge screen simultaneously projecting the film. Integrating characters, themes and classic lines from Ibsen's works, with themes that resonate in modern China today, it sells the bittersweet story of a lonely everyman estranged from his friends and family by an abusive father.
