Review of Dumplings (2004) by Jonathan W — 12 Jan 2008
Magnificent Chinese art house. But not for the squeamish. Was the hidden agenda the moral status of the fetus? Or, is cannibalism ok? Or an exploration of the lengths to which people will go to retain their youth? I found a personal journey whereby I discovered I could not find a logical problem with eating an aborted human foetus, yet was physically repulsed by the idea of someone spitting water from their mouth into mine.
Go figure. A poignant back story about backyard abortions too (pun intended).
