    • A documentary musical about the rise and fall of the Revolutionary Model Operas during the Cultural Revolution in China, based on traditional Chinese stories and adapted to the likes of Maos wife. We see these propaganda operas with those who performed in it, and look at their renewed popularity in modern day China. A marvellous mixture of high and low culture. (Sundance 2005)
