Poem for a Distant Village (2021)
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, a Chinese independent film project was canceled. The crew, locked out in a distant village, decide to shoot a film regardless of the conditions. They set out on a quest to find an actress from the locals while the producer reflects on his childhood in the village. The surreal stories of the first sexual experience, the childhood memories, a father beating his son, a dream with a bicycle and mister Bean, a wench excavating the field, a funeral, the bureaucracy of the government, new year’s eve, and mass prayers to counter the pandemic, compose a poem for a distant village.
