Résumés(1)
Left behind, a young boy shares the fate of over 60 million children in China, as his parents leave to find work elsewhere. Fending for himself in the mountainous countryside, he finds solace in his parents' promise to return on New Year's Eve, and in the loyal company of a tame piglet. Finally, his parents' home-coming draws near. With magnificent footage, the film tells the tale of an existence filled with unavoidable adversity. (Berlinale)
