- Based on actual events, a Chinese university student responds violently when his chances for a Nobel Prize are dashed by school politics.
- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Hypnotic, culturally pertinent drama."
-
"The film does a fine job of displaying the contrasts between these tense, formalized Chinese students and the faux populist American academics"
-
"Chen Shi-Zheng shows great sensitivity to the pressure and isolation felt by Chinese brains at American universities"
-
"Never fully succeeds in burrowing under its protagonist's skin, despite conspicuous effort"
-
"It is easy to see the film as two movies crammed together, neither of them being very good"
-
"Director Chen Shi-Zheng's film has a graceful energy, and three strong performances help make this serene drama - and its shocking conclusion - quietly moving."
