In 2021, a generation of disillusioned youth in China decided to step off the hamster wheel and “lie flat” on the ground. Crushed by overbearing workloads with no long-term reward in the form of job security or home ownership, young people indulged in the “tang ping” resistance movement, which advocated for manageable working hours and a quality of life — all of which were the antithesis of China’s punishing 9-9-6 work culture — working 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. six days a week.
“The Breaking Ice” is a love letter to Chinese youth. It’s also a vessel that’s allowed the celebrated filmmaker — who won the Camera d’Or in Cannes 10 years ago for his acclaimed debut feature “Ilo Ilo” — to enter the Chinese market on his own terms. And so Chen relinquished control — at least a little bit. Suddenly finding himself with a window of time one winter between projects, the filmmaker flew to China to make a movie, without any form of script in hand. The resulting project — written in a matter of days in a hotel during quarantine — is informed by the extensive research Chen carried out on the youth culture in China.
