FILMS directed by SUN XUN
Coal Spell
China 2008, 8 min, BetaSP
Director/Screenwriter/Editor: Sun Xun | Cinematographer: Yang Ze | Producer: Zhou Lei
Sun Xun is one of the most extraordinary young artists from China who – comparable to the South African artist William Kentridge – works primarily for the art space. The pictorial film Coal Spell condenses oppressive moods and scenes from China’s past and present and leaves an irritating aftertaste.
