For creating fresh insights into the suburban fabric of Chinese society and for employing the use of the digital with quiet, introvert restraint. it is commendable that the filmmaker Diao Yinan is able to see orruption amongst the poor beyond moral terms and establish its source in economic necessities and consumerist compulsions. That the main character never openly accuse each other when one protagonist makes money by feigning as a policeman and the other by secretely serving in an escort service company, speaks of a touching compassion on part of the filmmaker.
