Today’s China is undergoing explosive economic growth and societal change as it races toward a free market and prospects of prosperity. Bearing the consequences is its rural population whose traditional structure is ill suited to absorb the shock of rapid transformation. Du Haibin tells five different stories of farmers trying to cope with the impact of globalization and of how it is threatening to erase the vestiges of rural life and its centuries-long traditions.
Du Haibin graduated from the School of Photography, Beijing Film Academy, in 2000. His first documentary was Along the Railway (2000), followed by Under the Skyscraper (2002), the short film Life in Beijing (2003), Little Red Flowers (2004), Beautiful Men (2005), and Stone Mountain (2006).
«For quite a long time I’ve wanted to make a documentary that faithfully portrays life in contemporary rural Chinese society […] All the social and political movements in the past years, combined the dynamics of economic reform of the past two decades, the contemporary globalization […] many forces work together to create the despair and devastation we find in the countryside today […] I try to tear apart the apparent economic prosperity and expose the embarrassing reality in rural China. I try to show how peasants, China’s largest population group, are struggling to survive at this historic time. I try to portray the ordinary people caught up in this society of opportunism, restlessness and vanity».
