Beyond Index (2017)

Pure cinema. Rife with historical art references, Beyond Index follows a group of Chinese art students whose training comprises the precise imitation of classic paintings from the Western canon. This strict adherence to tradition shifts with the arrival of Yves Klein - both a character and a drug. Slowly intoxicated by Yves' words, and the mind-altering color blue, the students undergo an awakening, and begin to consider an alternative, less polluted, reality.
