Utopia
If there is no utopia on the map of this world, then this world is not worth considering. Independent documentary director Sun Zhiqiang has always maintained a firm belief in Utopia, and has regarded it as his consistent state of existence and creative practice guidelines. From the first part of "The Edge of Freedom" to the "Utopia" ", Sun Zhiqiang has always focused his camera on the group of people living on the edge of freedom in the underground rock circle, faithfully witnessing their changes over the past ten years. In "Utopia", we not only experience a journey in the lives of these musicians, but we also learn about the things around them and the wider environment.
