P4 Theater is a Beijing-born independent experimental theatre and moving-image practice led by artist and filmmaker He Fa.
Across Shoot Self with You, control moves between performers, audience, director positions, and the camera. This Short reads the finished film and P4's public film-memory essays; it does not claim off-camera facts.
The scene keeps relocating control: from performers, to an audience invited to act, to multiple director positions, and finally to the camera itself. The complete exchange preserves Jiarui's answer: “But I will fight back.”
