The film is an inside story about a diaspora of Chinese migrants who have been moving around the world—their pains, struggles, their ways of survival. It is also an examination of where they are heading as China becomes a world economic power. On top of that, while humanity is under attack by extremism, we hope to tell a story of hope for “symbiosis” from a Chinese perspective.As a Chinese Muslim and descendent of immigrants, I belong to so-called ‘minority’ population in China. My childhood memory is a mixture of adaptation, integration and rejection. This experience plays an important role for my film works which often deal with multi-layered identity of an immigrant.
