Printemps à Beijing (1988)
Overview
"One year before the massacre of Tian An Men [...] a few hundred meters from this immense square, where the tanks were going to crush the resistance, under the debonair gaze of Mao [...] I was loaned a tiny, autofocus camera, allowing me to shoot without framing, the lens wedged on my right hip. Everything is captured in clusters of images, edited directly into the camera. The diary of a stroller who travels through Beijing on foot and by bicycle - a cyclist among the cyclists who circulate in slow and tight flows." - Sudre
