Filmed over ten years, Zhao's doc is a piercing—and clocking in at five hours, very lengthy—look at the people who come from all over China to visit Beijing's complaints offices. Kafka would surely have related to their woes.

  • As a life-long New Yorker of over 50 years, I have enjoyed MoMa as one of my favorite NY "thing to do." However, I was accustomed to paying a nominal entrance fee. I find the current $20 entrance fee insultingly high to allow the public to view the world's great works of art. The museum no longer serves the public but big corporations and, of course, itself, the public that supported it for 50 years, be damned! $20. Why not $50? $100??? Disgraceful.
