Director Zhang Zanbo provides an in-depth look at the impact of the
corruption-filled project in rural Hunan province. Representing the

NYC
PREMIERE In this tender and sensitively observed portrait,
octogenarians Feng and Lou have been inseparable for over 40 years, but
aging and illness threaten their deep bond. Since Lou was diagnosed with
Alzheimer’s, Feng has been her steadfast caretaker, but he’s growing
increasingly worried about his own health. Is a nursing home the right
solution, and how will Lou handle such a radical change to their living
situation?

NORTH
AMERICAN PREMIERE In a rural village in northern China, a father/son
clash echoes the pull of tradition and modernization. When 20-year-old
Maofu returns home after migrant city work, he tries to convince his
aging beekeeping father Lao Yu to develop a brand for the family’s
honey. Lao Yu instead insists his son first learn the cherished
traditional apiary methods he’s practiced for 50 years. Diedie Weng
captures their standoff with intimacy, artfulness and unexpected humor.
