Made in China

The Chinese New Year holidays are approaching and Yῡ Liang Yuan (21) travels from the industrial colony where he lives in Shenzhen to his hometown in Henan (in one of China’s inland regions). but this in no ordinary vacation. This year, his visit is critical for his future and that of his family. Yῡ Liang Yuan hopes to get engaged with a former classmate with whom he has been having a long-distance relationship for a year. Made in China is the brave portrait of a story of self-improvement and self-acceptance in a country where a generation without a voice struggles for the opportunity to be themselves. Yῡ Liang Yuan will be forced to confront the issue of who he is and what he really wants. (Seminci - Valladolid International Film Festival)
