Age, Height, Education

About This Movie

So, 'Age, Height, Education' is this intriguing look at the matchmaking culture in Shanghai. It’s shot mostly in the vibrant backdrop of People’s Square, where you get a real sense of the hustle and bustle of parents trying to find partners for their kids. The film has a sort of observational tone, capturing the nuances of these interactions—parents holding up signs with details like age and height, while professional matchmakers navigate the scene. It’s not just about the matchmaking; it digs into societal pressures and expectations, which is kind of fascinating. The pacing is relaxed, almost like wandering through the square yourself, which I appreciate. It’s distinct in how it presents both the personal stakes and the larger cultural commentary.
