Part Three: Rails
Directed by Wang Bing
9 hour long film that details the slow decline of Shenyang’s industrial Tiexi district, an area that was once a vibrant example of China’s socialist economy. This third part narrows its focus to a single father and son who scavenge the rail yards in order to sell raw parts to the factories.
