YOUTH (SPRING)

JEUNESSE (SPRING)

a film by :Wang Bing

Zhili, 150 km from Shanghai. In this city dedicated to textile manufacturing, young workers come from all the rural regions crossed by the Yangtze River. They are in their early twenties, share dormitories and snack in the corridors. They work tirelessly to be able one day to raise a child, buy a house or set up their own workshop. Between them, friendships and love affairs are made and unmade according to the seasons, bankruptcies and family pressures.

French Synopsis :

Zhili, à 150 km de Shanghai. Dans cette cité dédiée à la confection textile, les jeunes affluent de toutes les régions rurales traversées par le fleuve Yangtze. Ils ont 20 ans, partagent les dortoirs, mangent dans les coursives. Ils travaillent sans relâche pour pouvoir un jour élever un enfant, s’acheter une maison ou monter leur propre atelier. Entre eux, les amitiés et les liaisons amoureuses se nouent et se dénouent au gré des saisons, des faillites et des pressions familiale
