Zhang Yimou pushes boundaries

The filmmaker's project, a performance, which he calls a 'conceptual show', is about the relationship between people and technology. Chen Nan reports.

Zhang Yimou, one of the country's most successful filmmakers, is known for interpreting traditional Chinese culture into international hits, including his martial arts epics, Hero and House of Flying Daggers, and art-house film Coming Home.

However, the 67-year-old, who is also a multiple Oscar nominee, is still pushing boundaries.
