Story

This documentary explores a dark chapter in Chinese history through the Gobi Desert in Gansu Province. Decades after a political campaign in 1957 labelled thousands as ideological threats, their remains still lie scattered across the landscape. The film brings together survivors of the labour camps where these individuals perished, allowing them to recount their experiences and the circumstances that led to their imprisonment.

Why watch

  • Directed by Wang Bing, known for in-depth documentary work
  • Rare firsthand accounts from camp survivors sharing their stories
  • Explores a significant but lesser-known historical event in detail

Good for: Suited for viewers interested in historical documentaries and willing to engage with challenging subject matter; not recommended for general family viewing due to its serious nature.
