Snowfall (Chute de neige) 雪葬
On Sunday, September 23, 2018, I went to see the movie Snowfall (Chute de neige) or 雪葬 in Chinese.
The movie is about the rise of Communism and the economic reform in the 1970s to 1990s of People's Republic of China. They centre their story around a village that becomes a herb export. It also talks about the struggles that the people face as a result of this reform and China opening up its policies. And of course politics and how people pass the buck to others and about swindling, etc.
The English and French translation of the title is not accurate though. Though, perhaps more poetic. The Chinese title literally translates to snow burial...
