Self-refl ection, Anti-genre Style and Meta-fi lm Aesthetics: Nomads among Chinese New Power Directors -- A study on director Wei Shujun’s aesthetic style
Abstract
visual style and profoundly introspective narrative approach have culminated in a singular meta-cinematic aesthetic.Through the portrayal
o f the life trajectories of youth in small towns and the existential challenges of modern individuals, he delves into resonant topics such as
youth, cinema, and societal ills, while articulating profound philosophical perspectives on youth, life, and a self-critical examination of the
fi lm industry.
