Alone

Gudu

“This film introduces an ordinary poor peasant’s family. We follow the relation between the family members, how in such misery men are capable of adapting themselves in order to survive, how even in the middle of nothing children manage to grow up… It’s an inhuman world where these young human beings live like animals, yet at the same time so human as the bond that exists between them helps them cope with life. The image of modernity, of economic development, and of an almost occidental world that China is presenting nowadays has slowly made the other side – the human side – disappear from our sight.” Wang Bing
