Screening: The Day of Reckoning 腊月三
About the Artist: Xu Xing 徐星 is a prominent Chinese writer and documentary filmmaker.
Often called ”The Chinese Jack Kerouac,” his works have consistently engaged with national and international issues of politics, power, and moral responsibility.
At the same time these larger issues are always evoked through the lives of the common working people in China.
Xu enjoyed his most prolific period as a writer during the 1980s and 1990s, and his books reached a broad international audience when they were translated into French, English and German.
In the early 1990s he migrated to Germany, staying in Heidelberg.
After returning to his hometown Beijing, he began shooting documentary films.
Xu is currently in residency at Boston University.
