Ash Is Purest White (Chinese: 江湖儿女; ‘Sons and Daughters of Jianghu’) is a 2018 Chinese drama film directed by Jia Zhangke. It was selected to compete for the Palme d’Or at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival. The story is loosely based on the leader of a gang from Zhangke’s childhood, whom he had admired as a role model.
