LIVING THE LAND (2025) @ Cleveland Cinematheque / l'Albatros
Details
The setting is a rural Chinese village in 1991. Change comes slowly to a peasant family’s ancient way of life as the surrounding nation is transformed into a global economic juggernaut.
“Like a vast 19th-century painting of farmers toiling under the sun…immerses the viewer in a remote Chinese agricultural community with all the precision and beauty of an accomplished artist.” – Hollywood Reporter
