Film Description

A politically daring tale of urban alienation and despair which tells of former prisoner Li Huiquan (Jiang Wen) who arrives back in his native Beijing, to find he has no home to return to. With no family, friends and few job prospects his underworld contacts try to drag him back in...

Taking the classic crime thriller hook of a former con struggling to go straight, Black Snow is a powerful study of displacement, and of the fear felt by many Chinese that perhaps there would be no place for them in the new, just-emerging China emerging after the 1989 student rebellion.
