Cui Zi'en, a native of Heilongjiang, is a devout Catholic with the baptismal name Peter, born under the sign of Leo. He holds a Master's degree in Literature from the Graduate University of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and serves as a second-level film screenwriter and associate professor at the Beijing Film Academy. Shaped by his early religious upbringing, Cui's works are infused with Christian elements, such as the Madonna image of Jin Jin Jin cradling a baby in his novel; the protagonist's hymns on the night of awaiting resurrection; speculations about the presence of Jesus on Mars; and the use of Psalms, Proverbs, and the Song of Songs to structure segments in his film "The Old Testament," along with scenes like Xiao Bo holding a Bible to call sinners to repentance... He skillfully resolves the irreconcilable tension between religion and homosexuality through beauty, making a remarkable attempt.
