Description

One autumn morning in Beijing, just after breakfast, Jia Jia's life changes for ever. After the sudden loss of her husband, the young artist sets out on a journey from a hidden jazz and whiskey bar, via a strange and dreamlike world of water, to the high plains of Tibet. Along the way, she crosses paths with people experiencing losses of their own, including someone who may be able to offer her the love she had long thought impossible.

Cinematic and delicately beautiful, Braised Pork is an exploration of myth-making, connection, a world beyond words and of a young woman's search deep into her past, in order to arrive at her future.
