"The Land of Peach Blossoms" - Film by ZHOU Mingying 2019 / China / Documentary / 99 minutes / Chinese (English subtitles)
In Chongqi, in the southwest of China, "The Source of Peach Trees" is a unique restaurant. Customers are served by actors performing singing and martial arts shows during their meal, but behind the scenes, a collectivist and authoritarian micro-society has formed around the charismatic founder. A fascinating documentary on the grandeur and decline of one man's delusional utopia. By sharing the daily life of the restaurant's employees, ZHOU Mingying reveals its workings and documents its step-by-step collapse.
