Plot: The wife of a chili farmer becomes involved in a one-woman crusade against the Chinese bureaucracy in Zhang Yimou's fable of contemporary China. When farmer Wan Qinglai gets into a violent argument with village head Wang Shantang and is hospitalized with groin injuries, his hugely pregnant wife Qiuju demands justice. Humiliated by Wang Shantang, Qiuju rejects his cash compensation and travels instead to the provincial capital. There the indomitable peasant woman undertakes the daunting task of extracting a simple apology from the labyrinthine bureaucracy.
