The first directors to graduate from Beijing's Film Academy after the repression of the Cultural Revolution had ended, China's convention-busting New Wave blazed on to the world stage with films that shook up the old order of communist cinema. Michael Berry explores the evolution of the post-Mao generation, from the avant-garde spirit of early films such as The Horse Thief through to controversial epics like Farawell My Concubine and To Live, to the big-budget fantasies of Hero and House of Flying Daggers. Overleaf, Nick James and James Bell outline the key films.
