Teen director wins kudos for new film

Stylish and confident, 17-year-old Hu Ziming stood in front of a screen in Beijing's downtown in late August and shared with audiences his experience producing his recently finished short movie, Hypersomnia.

The 27-minute movie, which screened in Beijing in August, has already won acclaim from some well-known names in China's film industry.

It revolves around a man who confuses his current life with the past and struggles to return to his normal life. It's a story Hu wrote two years ago, inspired by the film American Psycho (2000).
