Youth (Spring) (2023)
This film was shot between 2014 and 2019 in the town of Zhili, a district of Huzhou City in Zhejiang province, China. Zhili is home to over 18,000 privately-run workshops producing children's clothes, mostly for the domestic market, but some also for export. The workshops employ around 300,000 migrant workers, chiefly from the rural provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, Anhui, Jiangxi, Henan and Jiangsu.

EXT. TO DRAG OR NOT TO DRAG THAT IS THE QUESTION - DAY I appreciate the awareness that Wang Bing is trying to raise in the first 90 minutes of the film. It’s the same message at 120 minutes into the film, and it’s the same message at 212 minutes. I’m trying to say that it could have been shorter and had the same impact. FADE OUT.
