What Is Dong About?

The premise of Dong without spoilers.

Jia Zhangke follows painter Liu Xiaodong from China to Thailand, recording ordinary workers amid upheaval. In Fengjie, soon to be flooded by the Three Gorges Dam, Liu captures shirtless laborers reshaping the land; in Bangkok he paints Thai sex workers in brothels. The paired series reveal a shared malaise under dehumanizing labor.
