If you've read about iconoclastic director Zhang Yuan on the Vanguard blog, then you probably got tickets for a screening of his new film, Beijing Flickers, playing at the Festival.
What? You didn't? Well, here's what Twitter is saying about the movie and it should change your mind:

@tiff_net screening of Beijing Flickers. Beautifully shot film and script. Kind of like the Chinese version of #RENT #TIFF12 @thebloorcinema

Beijing Flickers was really cool, maybe what Salinger would have made if he was Chinese and directed movies #TIFF12
