Movie Screening for CAUGHT BY THE TIDES

An enduring but fragile love story shared by Qiao Qiao and Guao Bin, set in China, from the early 2000s to the present day. One day, a restless Guao Bin leaves without any notice to try his luck in another province. Qiao Qiao decides to go looking for him. An intimate epic that captures the passage of time with melancholic clarity, Caught by the Tides might be director Jia Zhangke and star Tao Zhao's most profound collaboration yet.

“This is a quietly brilliant film, one that blends a personal story, about two young people trying to make their mark, with a more global one, about a country that, a little more than 20 years ago, began changing drastically by the minute.” TIME Magazine

“Jia Zhangke captures China’s transformation over the last two decades using characters from his past films for the stunning docufiction drama. Viewers are in store for a banquet of lavish filmmaking that flows beautifully.” Fort Worth Report
