A Touch of Sin (2013)
Jia Zhangke's 2013 Chinese anthology. Four stories of modern violence in industrial China.
Zhao Tao has appeared in nearly every Jia Zhangke film and is married to the director. A Touch of Sin gives her a sauna receptionist whose assault produces the film’s most direct act of violence. Ash Is Purest White gave her a lead across seventeen years of Chinese social change.
