Singing in the Wilderness

After hiding in the mountains for a century, a Miao ethnic Christian choir is discovered by a propaganda official and becomes a national sensation. Two young Miaos and all the villagers must reconcile their faith, identity and love with the real world of China. An aching fable that captures the struggle of a community to maintain its own values while opening up to modernity, a film that raises questions for all of us who are caught in the dilemma of money and meaning, past and present, minority and majority nowadays.
