FYI Jia Zhangke is one of China's top directors. He won the Golden Lion in Venice, and several other accolades. Typically he makes subtle films.
Out of curiosity he spent a few days with an AI video generation tool, and released a short film in in time for Chinese New Year.
You can see it here on YouTube:

He made a short meditation about creativity and identity, showing himself and an AI version of himself (though, of course, both instances were AI generated). It features images from a few of his movies, but you can enjoy without having seen those.
I was initially very much against AI films, but this short film shows what a consummate storyteller can do with the tool. Worth 5 minutes of your time.
