As a young man, Zheng was a wild boy: he’d rather spend his time gambling and dancing than studying. But his exuberant way of life came to an end when, during the Cultural Revolution, he was charged with counter-revolutionary behavior and sent to prison. Now, he lives in the boarding house of Shuanglin Town, and is a silent witness to the last chapter of his own, lonely Life. Unyielding to his neighbors, to his society, to its History, as well as to the omnipresent Chinese system, he realizes that he is even almost independent of himself. This intimate and respectful portrait of a striking 83-year-old Chinese citizen offers us an inside view into the way China treats its Seniors and gives us the opportunity to better understand China’s contemporary History.

Una antigua historia china acerca de cómo el pintor Wang-Fo se salvó de su sentencia de muerte. Aprovechando el rodaje del largometraje "Gandahar", con la colaboración de Philippe Caza, surgen dos cortos: "Comment Wang Fô fut sauvé / Como se salvó Wang Fô", inspirado en una novela corta de la escritora Margueritte Yourcenar; y "La prisonnière / La prisionera" (1987), un sketch realizado por el propio Laloux con la ayuda del mismo asistente y dibujante (Caza).
