Viv Li

A wistful but witty account of a trip to Beijing by filmmaker Viv Li, a Chinese art student who has been living abroad for ten years. Her stay with her family mercilessly exposes how uprooted she has become by her life abroad.

Youth, a period of life that is purposely wasted, but full-heartedly enjoyed. Following a young Portuguese girl's hair dye endeavour, the director remembers her own libertine youth. A dialogue beyond time, space and culture unfolds the truth of being young.
