Abstract:
The study focuses on the cinematic stories of the growing up of filmmakers and other filmmakers who made films at the turn of the millennium (1970s generation in China). The study indicates that these films have many formal features of the Bildungsroman genre: a flashback, a reflection of a persons subjective history in a storyline, critical processes of growing up against the background of a countrys socio-cultural transformation. The characteristics of the millennium narrative that took shape in China has all the hallmarks of intermediacy and continues to define art in the digital media era. Much of the research focuses on the complex fusion of musical styles in the films under study, reflecting the authenticity of the ideal past and youth versus the alienation of the later space of the characters lives.
