I Am Not Madame Bovary(HKAFF 2016)

To get access to public housing for singles, Xuelian and her husband Qin agree to get a fake divorce and remarry once their new homes is secured. But when Qin ends up marrying another woman, Xuelian vows to get justice, even it takes her to the highest levels of government. Director Feng Xiaogang, – the pioneer of modern-day Chinese blockbusters, boldly goes into formalist mode by shooting most of the film in a circle frame. Collaborating with novelist Liu Zhenyun for the third time, Feng proves that commercial success is no reason to dull a sharp northern wit or a spirit for experimentation.
