Jia Zhang Ke suit le travail du peintre chinois Liu Xiaodong à travers deux œuvres de l'artiste : la première se fait au village de Fengjie, bientôt englouti par les eaux à la suite de la construction du barrage des Trois-Gorges. Liu Xiadong y peint les ouvriers au travail et dans la détente. La deuxième met en scènes des jeunes femmes de Bangkok, belles et sensuelles.

The film follows rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars as they first learn of and then begin to fight a $30 million lawsuit brought by record label EMI. At the time, they had been writing songs in preparation for the follow-up to their 2005 album A Beautiful Lie. For the bulk of the film, the band, consisting of Jared Leto, his brother Shannon Leto, and Tomo Miličević, is shown working with producers Flood and Steve Lillywhite to create what would eventually become This Is War. Between recording sessions, they meet with lawyers to negotiate for the band's survival.
