Jessica Kingdon's 2021 documentary "Ascension" is a masterpiece of style and message as well as a technical marvel. Her exploration of China's hyper-capitalist economic system is both a disturbing examination of the state of modern humanity and (in my opinion) a subtle condemnation of the nature of human behaviour. The power of Ascension is why I love cinema.

Music used in this review from Max Richter's "Organum".
