5 directors from China got the Lions award 7 times in the history of Venice Film Festival. But how about these films by themselves in your eyes? and do you think they mislead people outside China who never know Chinese culture and real life in China? I think so. Most of these winning films are unvarnished or even described the uncultured China.

Err, I feel the same way. Chinese movie abroad, especially these award-winning ones are all about unadormed China. I don't like to watch it even they are good in topic or story.
