Missing Home
Directed by Weimin Zhang (China, USA, 2012)
Beijing’s Hutongs, the traditional city structure with a unique ancient architectural style dating back to the Yuan dynasty (1206-1341), have been fading into the shade and greatly destroyed after massive demolishing under the rapid economic boom in China. Missing Home explores the complexities of modernization and development in urban environments, and the effect it has on individual lives. 77 minutes. In English.
