So, 'Tea' is this fascinating documentary that captures a performance of Tan Dun's opera, which is really a unique blend of traditional Chinese elements with modern theatricality. The film has a sort of meditative quality, you know? Scheffer weaves in interviews that give you a peek into the minds of Dun, director Pierre Audi, and librettist Xu Ying. Their thoughts on the opera and its cultural significance add depth to the visuals. The pacing is a bit slow, but it feels intentional—as if inviting you to soak in the atmosphere. What stands out is how the documentary doesn't just showcase the performance; it dives into the philosophy behind the opera, making it a thoughtful piece in its own right.
