Postsocialist Cinema in Post-Mao China [EPUB ebook] 
The Cultural Revolution after the Cultural Revolution

This book argues that the fundamental shift in Chinese Cinema away from Socialism and towards Post-Socialism can be located earlier than the emergence of the ‚Fifth Generation‘ in the mid-eighties when it is usually assumed to have occured. By close analysis of films from the 1949-1976 Maoist era in comparison with 1976-81 films representing the Cultural Revolution, it demonstrates that the latter already breaks away from Socialism.
