FIELD
Directed by LÜ MEIJING
2022
A chaotic field evokes contradictory, ambiguous emotions. At a reunion, a man resists rekindled desire. Another abandons visiting a dying friend after a rainy drive. A woman fails to break up during a hotel tryst. A drunk man contemplates suicide. We return to places never visited, forever approaching unfolding adventure.

TO SAY FAREWELL
WANG LIBO 2024
In a Manhattan apartment in New York, there lived a 96-year-old solitary elderly person, Gao Yaojie. Seen as the first grassroots AIDS activist in China, Gao was forced to flee to the United States from China at the age of 82. The elderly woman's long and tumultuous life mirrors the turbulent modern history of China. The film documents the lonely last three months of Gao Yaojie's life.

BLESSED WITH BURDENS
CHEN ZIYAN 2025
When my cousin gave birth to a girl, my mom and family stood outside the obstetrics and gynecology department and said, 'Those who give birth to daughters are blessed.' But is childbirth truly a blessing? Behind the blessing and the excitement, how much have mothers sacrificed and compromised in their choices? And as daughters, do we really see everything our mothers have done for us?
