My Land (2016)

吾土

Chen Chun, My Land’s central figure, left the countryside fifteen years ago to settle in the outskirts of Beijing. Happily living with his family in the shadow of the capital, he makes a living by growing and selling vegetables. However, the city, ceaselessly expanding, eventually reaches Chen’s farm. The landowner, saying that the area will be redeveloped, tries to force Chen to leave.
