Five Parisian students, their political awareness aroused by Chairman Mao's Little Red Book and the Chinese Cultural Revolution, envision an overthrow of Western governmental systems - which they aim to bring about through acts of terrorism.
Overview:
Born in a decade of political turmoil, La Chinoise has become a cinematic marker for the significant historical events that surrounded its creation. Five Parisian students, their political awareness aroused by Chairman Mao's Little Red Book and the Chinese Cultural Revolution, envision an overthrow of Western governmental systems - which they aim to bring about through acts of terrorism. One of Godard's most brilliant films of the 60s, its success lies in the rejection of traditional narrative techniques: it is a dialectical charade which is as disturbing as it is comical. Though criticised in its day as a political manipulation, La Chinoise has proven alarmingly prophetic and its impact on audiences during the late 60s is echoed amongst viewers today.
