Self-Portrait: Window in 47 KM

Synopsis

This is the eighth film in the documentary series, 47 KM. An 85-year-old man sits under MAO Zedong's portrait, recalling his revolutionary history in pursuit of the ‘New China’. A 15-year-old girl named FANG Hong wanders through the village with her paintbrush, knocking on the elders’ doors to paint their portraits. My camera follows FANG Hong; together we has built a window for the ‘47-km village’.
