9. "The Crossing"

Another new director Bai Xue's directorial debut "The Crossing" is quite a masterful surprise and is different from traditional youth films focusing on campus and love. It tells the story of a young girl, brilliantly portrayed by Huang Yao, who is drawn into the murky world of smuggling goods across the border between Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland. With interesting cultural and social clashes, "The Crossing" is a deep, realistic and special breakthrough, which records the important social changes in this era.
