上海の恋人の物語。旅行社で日本人のツアーアレンジに邁進する青年、両親は「中国人も日本人のごとく働き蜂になるか？」と案ずる。その両親は国営企業を引退しても年金では暮らせず、細々料理店を営む。一方美貌を武器に生きていこうとする恋人、仕事ばかりの彼に戸惑いながら、ふたりの将来に、と勝手にマンションを買ってしまう。親にとっては、どちらも「理解しがたい新世代」。開発で古い家並みが次々消える上海の都会にもまれる老若男女四人の日常を描く。郭静監督は「自分たちも上海の激変に戸惑っている。壊される古い街並み、変わる価値観、皆が、この先社会はどうなるの？と感じる不安を描いた。」という。 　　上海経済の急成長を象徴するモーレツ社員の青年を主人公に、「日本人並みに働きバチになった」上海の人たちの姿をシニカルに見つめるドキュメンタリー。主人公の青年の恋人は、彼のモーレツぶりに戸惑い、彼の気を引こうと勝手にマンションを買ってしまう。一方、彼の両親は国営企業を引退したにも関わらず、年金では生きていけないと、不慣れなレストラン経営に乗り出したが上手くいかず、老いた夫婦にはケンカが絶えない。気丈な母は「息子は働きすぎ」と嘆きながらも、夫を怒鳴りながら黙々と働く日々。「働くって何だ？」と、青年の自問自答が始まる。 　　“NHK和中国青年导演郭静、柯丁丁，用了一年时间联合推出的《上海城市男孩的忧郁》，是一部很值得花1小时50分钟观看、花更多时间思考的纪录片，尤其是25-40岁的北上广深等都市漂泊一族。因为本片讲述的就是我们身边的人，或者说就是我们自己。 　　本片对从事纪录片、摄影等视觉文化的研究和实践者，也会有启发。”

印度昌迪加尔是从平地兴建起来的新城市。 　　1951年法国建筑师勒·柯布西耶受聘负责新城市的规划工作。昌迪加尔是一座规划城市，市内街道成方格状。昌迪加尔的总体规划贯穿了勒·柯布西耶关于城市是一个有机体的规划思想，并以“人体”为象征进行城市布局结构的规划。

In 1960 Jane Jacobs’s book The Death and Life of Great American Cities sent shockwaves through the architecture and planning worlds, with its exploration of the consequences of modern planners’ and architects’ reconfiguration of cities. Jacobs was also an activist, who was involved in many fights in mid-century New York, to stop “master builder” Robert Moses from running roughshod over the city. This film retraces the battles for the city as personified by Jacobs and Moses, as urbanization moves to the very front of the global agenda. Many of the clues for formulating solutions to the dizzying array of urban issues can be found in Jacobs’s prescient text, and a close second look at her thinking and writing about cities is very much in order. This film sets out to examine the city of today though the lens of one of its greatest champions.

In the near future, China Tracy will build a city dubbed RMB City within Second Life. This will be the condensed incarnation of contemporary Chinese cities with most of their characteristics; a series of new Chinese fantasy realms that are highly self-contradictory, inter-permeative, laden with irony and suspicion, and extremely entertaining and pan-political. 　　China's current obsession with land development in all its intensity will be extended to Second Life. A rough hybrid of communism, socialism and capitalism, RMB City will be realized in a globalized digital sphere combining overabundant symbols of Chinese reality with cursory imaginings of the country's future. In RMB City, we will be able to cruise the digital ocean, witnessing a Ferris wheel rotating on top of the Monument to the People's Heroes; looking down from the sky on the water of the Three Gorges reservoir gushing out of the Tian'anmen rostrum; passing the giant new totem symbolizing the Oriental Pearl TV Tower of Shanghai; hopping over the Feilai Temple marooned in a raging torrent; walking across a vast, desolate state-owned factory area in Northeast China; and finally hovering over the Grand National Theatre in Beijing. Also in our view will be gigantic planes gliding over terraces in the crevices of the central business district, and aerial super-malls. We will see water flowing into huge toilets on the container piers of the Pearl River Delta area before traveling through the sewage system into an ocean with floating statues of Mao Zedong. The rusted steel structure of the Olympic Stadium aka "Bird's Nest" will be washed in splashes of ocean spray, while an aerial band on a floating sheet of the national flag filled with five-pointed stars makes a deafening noise that shakes Rem Koolhaas' CCTV building, causing it to collapse....
