Different from the hypocritical and humble citizen specimens that "Dogtown" focuses on, "Mandalay" selects the object of the race system that has lasted for hundreds of years and the serfdom inertia that has persisted because of it. Can be reversed. However, Trier is obviously not satisfied with the entertainment and publicity functions of the film. His artistic ambition is the social specimen. He wants "Mandalay" to be the same as "Dogtown", with the help of strong stage zoning and DV performance. The audience is separated from the narrative, making the work a real work of art, and condensing the "time crystal" as Deleuze said. Perhaps it is precisely because of its rich social landscape that the United States can become the largest stage for condensing the time crystals of film art.
