‘The World’
A film by Jia Zhangke
Chinese with English Subtitles, Colour, 135 min, 2004
'The World' was filmed on and around a theme park in Beijing which recreates world landmarks at reduced scales for tourists. The film is a meditation on the effects of global capital and its tendency to erase local histories.

About Palettes Series by Alain Jaubert:
The Palettes series of documentaries explores great paintings throughout the history of art. From the canvas to the type of brush used by the artist, from the historical or individual context of the painting to the characters displayed in its features, each episode uses the finest technology to uncover the endless secrets a work can hide.
