    • Synopsis
    • Shiwei still has a mountain of fabric to cut and Xiao DONG is chasing bosses to get paid, six months after having completed his deliveries. In this latest instalment of YOUTH, Wang BING starts out in Zhili's deserted textile workshops on New Year’s Eve, before travelling to Shiwei's marriage in the Yunnan mountains. In Anhui, we take part in the New Year celebrations before attending the wedding of Fang LINGPING, a former computer scientist who has decided to follow his wife to Zhili. The apprenticeship is tough, but it doesn't stop a new generation of workers from emerging.
