It is impossible to shoot this kind of subject in China, and it is even less dare to shoot

Profound perspective, when watching it without exclaiming how brave the director and producer are to use such a theme, or the film itself is not influenced by politics? But in China, I don't believe that a film that directly criticizes the government can pass the review of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television!
Think of the remarks in the film that the host publicly preached and criticized the government's corruption on the program...how fun. In such a big country, our own corruption is far more than a minority. Why has no director ever expressed it in a relevant film (not even a fictional film with a similar plot), and no film has ever dared to make a film with the image of commenting on the government. . Even in terms of entertainment films, scenes of governments or heads of state appearing in European and American blockbusters (the White House and the President of the United States are the most common, the heads of state appearing in our country are limited to the great men of the era of Chair Mao and Xiaoping) everywhere. Films with political themes are also normal abroad, such as this film and Fahrenheit 911. For the reason, I don’t think it’s not because Chinese directors lack observation and expressiveness, but because everyone is afraid to touch such a sensitive topic.
