About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

This film was shot entirely with a borrowed camera. It follows a teen villager Yun Xu, who travels with little money and no clue, to the city of Zigong to find his father, who abandoned the family six years earlier. As a flood forces mass evacuations, Yun Xu turns to friendly strangers for help in his search. With his poor family facing relocation by the government, the angry Yun Xu is determined to find out whether rumors of his father having newfound wealth are true.


Directed by Ying Liang.

Not Rated.
