Beijing Bicycle

(Taiwan/France/China, 2000, 113 minutes)

A young provincial finds a job in Beijing as a bike messenger, but his bicycle is stolen and ends up in the hands of a moneyless student wanting to belong to his high school cool clique. Poignant neo-realist melodrama of modern urban life, as gripping as it is downbeat.
