Ghost Town
The Museum of Modern Art - MoMA, New York
A film by chinese director Zhao Dayong, as a part of the monthly exhibition ContemporAsian
As part of the monthly exhibition ContemporAsian, MoMA showcases films that get little exposure outside of their home countries or on the international festival circuit, but which engage the various styles, histories, and changes in Asian cinema. Presented in special weeklong engagements, the films in the series include recent independent gems and little-seen classics. ContemporAsian is organized by Jytte Jensen, Curator, Department of Film, with William Phuan, independent curator, and the assistance of Laura Rugarber, Department Assistant, Department of Film, The Museum of Modern Art. Ghost Town (2008), by Chinese director Zhao Dayong, is a tremendously rewarding film that illuminates the alienation and marginalization of the denizens of one of China's countless remote villages.
