A tender and poetic matriarchal ode by Yehui Zhao, whose short film Hei'er was featured in the second edition of Prismatic Ground. In a remote Chinese village, a peasant family endured wars, the communist revolution, and the deadliest famine. Persecution and hardship eventually forced the family to scatter. Against the backdrop of China’s rapid urbanization, the filmmaker sets out to unearth her family’s enduring bond with this long-forgotten village, hidden deeply in the vast mountain range of Loess Plateau.
Join us for a post-screening Q&A with director Yehui Zhao.
