Martin SchäferSaw Jia Zhangke's "Caught by the tides" yesterday (thanks https://www.cineding-leipzig.de/). In Mandarin Chinese it is called 风流一代 feng1liu2 yi1dai4 'dissolute/loose generation', in my view a slightly better fit. Mostly because even the metaphorical usage of 'tide' irritates me given that the main role of water in the movie is played by the Yangtze which in the movie (and perhaps in general) is quite uninfluenced by tides.
Anyways, a great, slow movie :)
