A timeless tale of uphill battle of progressivism against society and its blind adherence to tradition. Even those who think they are clever enough to rig the game are very quickly disabused of their notions and are punished more for being a rebel. There's simply no winning and the only way out seems to be is to go insane or die. Shot with a color palette to convey its meaning and capturing imagery full of life in a lifeless location, Raise the Red Lantern hits hard and hits right.
A must see. Very impressive.
