Mehran Tamadon explores what it was like being interrogated by the Iranian regime by asking prisoners to reconstruct their experiences. Alongside his companion film Where God Is Not, My Worst Enemy finds Tamadon shifting focus from the interrogated to the interrogator. The filmmaker sought an individual who had been interrogated by Iranian authorities in order to draw on their experiences to play an interrogator. The role finally fell to the Cannes-winning lead actor of Holy Spider, Zar Amir Ebrahimi. Together in an anonymous room, with Tamadon stripped to his underwear, they reconstruct the interrogation process, which gradually becomes an examination of the nature of power and coercion. The resulting film is intense and, at times, uncomfortable. And as it progresses, My Worst Enemy becomes an exploration of cinema’s relationship with its audience, questioning whether there is a limit to what it can show.
1996年的《紙人頭》哈那克又回到了《322》時記錄與虛構並置的路線。導演從大批過去未曾展示過的檔案影像之中，回憶並重溯了從二次大戰到89年絲絨革命的這段歷史，除了運用民眾在5月1日的共黨大節裡，以紙製人頭偶來揶揄政治人物的行動偶劇為創意，重新安排以紙人頭在成批的歷史影像串流中穿插出現，重構一齣政治寓言。導演並反身自涉了70年代的個人經驗回顧，企圖為這個被世界遺忘與湮滅的區域撢去塵埃。 影片中大批出自不同年代不知名拍攝者之手的檔案影像，包含了官方的節慶宣傳，民間的反彈行動、秘密警察大肆街頭逮捕等等，不同鏡頭的視角、時間、觀點在導演手中統籌、架構成一套哈那克的敘事言說。除了回溯近代史之外，導演在創作處理涉及的層面與手法，讓影像的鏡頭、觀點、政治意識型態的支配以及作者本身意志與自覺之間多層次辯證，又多了更往前推進一步的例子。這對當前劇情片回漲無期，而紀錄片當紅的台灣，有心思索下一步的影像創作者來說，杜桑‧哈那克應該是深具啟發性的。
屏風表演班從1986年成立至今走過三十多個年頭，為台灣留下許多經典劇作。演出類型涵蓋喜劇、悲劇、或融合傳統京劇、流行歌舞、魔術科幻等戲劇形式；關懷層面遍及人際關係、歷史探索、老兵議題、政治情勢、民生現況、家庭情感等社會議題。作為屏風表演班的靈魂人物，李國修老師將自身生命經驗融入創作之中。他審視當下環境，探索關於這塊土地的喜怒哀樂；他回望自己的人生，重新學會面對以及放下；他在劇中飾演父親，在劇本中揣摩母親。戲開始前，故事已然發生。李國修老師對於表演有一套學問，他曾說，想學表演，得先認識這八個字：「角色扮演」與「生活態度」。先把做人的道理搞清楚，就會搞懂角色在想什麼了。在每一齣戲裡，演員必須運用自己的生活與生命經驗，投入角色的創作；每演完一齣戲之後，演員又能從角色身上學習到不同的生命思維與處事智慧。
该片由著名摄影师和纪录片导演焦波担任总导演，此前他的《俺爹俺娘》和《亲吻春天——俺和俺的地震孤儿》系列曾在中国社会引起巨大反响，尤其是《俺爹俺娘》系列曾感动了无数儿女。 这一次《乡村里的中国》焦波仍然把镜头对准了其老家——山东淄博，不过拍的不再是自己出生的村庄，而是沂蒙山革命老区沂源县杓峪村。影片以一个小村庄为切入点，展现了中国农村的巨大变迁、环境保护、农民的精神追求和物质追求等诸多社会现实话题，既生动有趣，又深刻感人。 焦波在接受记者采访时透露，拍摄这部纪录片，他和他的摄制组在杓峪村里呆了整整373天：“村里一共有167户人家，我们去了之后是第168户。”而焦波的摄制组，除了他一个人年龄较大（接近60岁），其它四名主创的平均年龄只有20出头：“所以我们这个片子展现的不仅是中国农村的社会现实，而且是站在年轻人的角度去展现的，我相信也会受到年轻人喜欢。” 最373天时间里，《乡村里的中国》摄制组和当地村民一起吃、一起住，成了一家人拍摄了近1000个小时的素材，最终剪辑出大约两个小时的精华。 曾多次执导央视春晚的金越认为，《乡村里的中国》直观鲜活地呈现了中国农民不同个体的喜怒哀乐、家庭关系和民俗民风，人物形象鲜明生动，影片结构充满张力，故事复杂，线索清晰，画面朴实，剪辑流畅，同期声音录制完美，“是这个时代有记录意义的、不可多得的中国农村生活标本。”
