Directed, co-written and produced by Jiang Wen, this black comedy debuted at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival – only to be banned in China. Set in a small village during the Sino-Japanese War, Devils on the Doorstep cuts from slapstick to tragic, culminating in a ferocious and bloody ending. The film, which has received critical acclaim, is shown in Mandarin with English subtitles.
