Starring Liu Kai, Gao Mengfan, Tian Tian and Pan Deng, it is written and directed by Zhang Ximing, and supervised by Yang Chao.
This film tells the intricate story of gratitude and resentment between a shipowner and his real daughter and the other one in disguise. As they recollect everything, the seething revenge covered by the kinship between father and daughter is out finally. In the film, the director tried to visualize the mental feelings of characters, and adopted a narrative method that paralleled the physical space and the psychological space, creating new narrative possibilities.
“Ship of Fools” is Zhang Ximing’s feature films debut. And previously, his documentary short works won the admission ticket to the Busan Film Festival’s Wide Angle Unit and FIRST International Film Festival. At the 赌博app YOUNG event of the 22nd 赌博app 赌博app, the judges gave recommendations for the artistry of “Ship of Fools”: “The juxtaposing of tradition and modernity, with imagery setting and character relationships, creates a crazy and blurred atmosphere, while depicting eventually the spiritual world of human. Thus, this film is of exploratory quality.”
