Narrated in the style of a science documentary but using local Chongqing dialect, the video brings a geological and topographical perspective to types of 'rocks' found in the area,from mythological stones from a mountain cliff, to ruins of the original settlement, to a stone sculpture from a dubious 'Land Art Biennial', in order to address issues of land acquisition, top-down development and spatial politic.

Alemania, 1939. Cuando Adolf Hitler está a punto de conducir a su país a la guerra, imponiendo una dura disciplina que niega la libertad individual, grupos de jóvenes alemanes, entusiasmados por la pasión política y el mensaje de libertad de la música swing americana, se rebelan contra ese orden. Conocidos como los "Chicos del Swing", imitan la última moda inglesa y americana: llevan abrigos demasiado grandes, sombreros hongo, paraguas negros y el pelo largo. Su pasión por la exuberancia del baile se basa en un gran conocimiento de la música, y lo que empieza siendo una inocente rebelión juvenil, se convierte en una peligrosa rebelión política contra la amenazante marea nazi.
