Screwed over by corrupt Mainland China!
Well, there's a surprise. Feng's film, which is rightfully critical of the Chinese legal system, and mainland Chinese culture in general -- and even uses a circular frame to oppress its characters even further -- is being hushed up by the Party. Glad we at least got to see this at TIFF beforehand. I'm sure it will never be seen by the people who would most benefit from seeing it: Mainland Chinese.
