A town in Fengjie county is gradually being demolished and flooded to make way for the Three Gorges Dam. A man and woman visit the town to locate their estranged spouses, and become witness to the societal changes.
“This film masterfully captures the profound human cost of rapid industrialization through two parallel quests for lost loved ones amidst a landscape of demolition. Its breathtaking cinematography transforms destruction into art, yet the deliberate, almost glacial pacing may test the patience of viewers accustomed to faster narratives.”
Viewers who appreciate contemplative, visually striking cinema that explores the human impact of large-scale societal change.
