DRIFTERS
The new movie by the director of Beijing Bicycle is about an uncertain and broken future as a result of failed emigration.While China is modernising at a rapid rate, adventurers continue to embark on perilous journeys to the West.This movie is set on the seaboard of Fujian province, where many illegal immigrants to the West set off. Drifters is not about this journey itself, but more about the consequences for family bonds and the world of those who have returned. One man who has recently been repatriated to China, after several years as an illegal in the USA, now spends his days as a slacker in the village. Then he hears that his former in-laws have returned to China with his son. His brother urges a meeting, which leads to a series of uneasy and emotional events.Wang Xiaoshuai is one of the most prestigious directors, shooting his movies independently, sometimes even on the margins of the law.
