It is not clearly stated why the men are in the mental institution, adding to the observational approach of the documentary. The documentary film uses handheld camerawork and digital video to capture the relationship between society and individuals. Towards the end of the film, one of the patients is allowed to return to his home village. It creates a contrast to the isolation and atmosphere of the mental institution. Reception Slant Magazine said, "Whether in terms of filmmaking or indeed reality itself, it's hard to think of a more quietly radical proposition than the one Wang is making here: There's compassion to be found in even the harshest of circumstances; it's all about knowing where to look."Lattimer James Review: 'Til Madness Do Us Part https://www.slantmagazine.com/film/til-madness-do-us-part/ Slant Magazine 3 May 2022 Festivals The documentary was shown at the following festivals 2013 Venice Film Festival Winner, 2013 Festival des 3 Continents of Nantes 2013 Toronto Film Festival 2013 Rio Film Festival 2013 Busan Film Festival 2013 DocLisboa 2013 Viennale 2013 Golden Horse Festival 2014 Rotterdam Film Festival 2014 Goteborg Film Festival 2014 Hong Kong Film Festival 2014 Sydney Film Festival 2014 Edinburgh Film Festival 2014 Melbourne Film Festival 2014 Geneva Film Festival References External links 3120794 'Til Madness Do Us Part Category:Chinese documentary films Category:2013 films Category:2013 Mandarin-language films Category:2013 documentary films Category:Films directed by Wang Bing Category:2013 Chinese films
