UNDER THE RED MOUNTAIN: CHIFENG AND FURTHER NORTH

Overview

UNDER THE RED MOUNTAIN: CHIFENG AND FURTHER NORTH documents a hitchhiked, trained and walked journey from Shanghai to the city of Chifeng and then from there, further north into Mongolia. Shot during the middle of winter, the film connects the decrease in the temperature with the increasing isolation and militarisation of the places, spaces and people of China and its “autonomous regions”.
