Duration: 99 minutes

Ma Lao is a famous carpenter and painter in the village. In addition to watching and chatting at the entrance of the village, he is also doing coffin business with another carpenter in the village, Lao Cao.

But now the government strongly advocates cremation, and the old horse secretly tells his grandson that his last wish is to bury himself by the Caozi Lake, waiting for the crane to carry him to heaven one day. ...

Personally, I think it's very interesting, the lines are very interesting (the stuttering girl is especially fun), the publicity is very effective, and the photographic composition is very thoughtful. The big bird part shocked me. What a nice place.

Someone asked the director why he always shoots marginal subjects such as "old donkey's head" and "white crane", and the director said:

I can't agree with this statement in particular. China's elderly population is close to 200 million, and China has now entered an aging society. I filmed a story about such a large group. You call this fringe? If they are not mainstream, who is?

I know this is an era of entertainment to death, and no one will really care about other people's lives, but the life of such a large group should not be blocked. We live in this world and there are all kinds of things and people every day. Maybe some people can turn a blind eye, but I can't. Movies are my best communication tool with the world.
