520			_aFrom case cover: A masterful film from Jia Zhang-ke, the renowned director of "Still Life" and "The World", "24 City" chronicles the dramatic closing of a once-prosperous state-owned aeronautics factor and its conversation into a sprawling luxury apartment complex. Bustling with poetry, pop songs and striking visual detail, the film weaves together unforgettable stories from three generations of workers whose lives have revolved around the factory—some real, some played by actors (including Joan Chen)—into a vivid portrait of the human struggle behind China's economic miracle. From IMDb: Change and a city in China. In Chengdu, factory 420 is being pulled down to make way for multi-story buildings with luxury flats. Scenes of factory operations, of the workforce, and of buildings stripped bare and then razed, are inter-cut with workers who were born in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s telling their stories - about the factory, which manufactured military aircraft, and about their work and their lives. A middle-aged man visits his mentor, now elderly; a woman talks of being a 19-year-old beauty there and ending up alone. The film concludes with two young people talking, each the child of workers, each relaying a story of one visit to a factory. Times change.
