Xia wu guo jiao - Mid-Afternoon Barks
China - By Zhang Yueding

Scene from "Mid-Afternoon Barks"
A shepherd, an arborist and a water melon vendor. Piles being planted in the ground. It could be telephone poles or power poles. Maybe they only connect the different episodes of this films which is almost an experimental film. A film at the border between reality and subconscious. Pure cinema with most amusing sidetrips to the absurd, refusing, by using only little dialogue and original-mysterious worlds of images, to be labelled senseful too easily. Sounds are very important in this film: dogs barking in the afternoon and an explosion from time to time. Structures, associations, forms, meditation.
