Youth (Hard Times) (SGIFF)

In this second part of the Youth trilogy, filmmaker Wang Bing continues to explore the lives of young migrant workers in the town of Zhili. The sounds of sewing machines echo relentlessly day and night as workers race against time to meet targets in deplorable conditions, earning meagre wages to survive. The camera captures the harsh reality of China, which, despite its communist facade, is ruled by the forces of capitalism and consumerism. Harsh working conditions as well as tensions between the working class and the entrepreneur are highlighted alongside the impotence and corruption of the authorities.
