Bliss (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)
Those who are familiar with Hong Kong independent films must have heard of Fruit Chan. In 2006 he produced Beijing director Sheng Zhimin’s second feature film Bliss, which won the Netpac Award at the 2006 Locarno International Film Festival and was officially selected for many other festivals. Having worked with Fruit Chan as screenwriter for Durian Durian and assisted other famous Chinese directors like Jia Zhangke, Sheng Zhimin skillfully details the frustration in marriage experienced by a Mainland Chinese family in Bliss.
Retired security guard Old Li, whose wife left him a long time ago, is about to marry divorcee Zhang. Meanwhile, his son’s busy schedule leaves little time for his wife, who thus finds pleasure in extra-marital affairs. Zhang’s son is a gangster and his girlfriend works as a nightclub girl to make more money. Sharing a similar human touch with Fruit Chan’s films, Bliss ably portrays ordinary people who mature through confusion and mistakes, amidst the rapidly changing morality and values of Mainland China..
