had the privilege of seeing xia's new film recently and picked up a signed copy of this the next day.

so far, very good; told with the same nuance and on-the-ground approach as she described in the q&a after.

but what stands out most to me continues to be xia's capacity for evoking empathy, bringing an individual's story to the forefront of something larger than itself. perfect synecdoche.
