Low-budget and top quality films
Singing from the Roof of the World
Directed by Wang Wenjie
Written by Zhang Huafeng and Lv Pinpin
Production Company: Sam Cultural Industry Group and Taian Broadcasting and TV station
It tells of a young man from Shandong province who went to Tibet and helped local kids realize their dreams; meanwhile, the young man had finally regained his strength and faith with the help of the Tibetan seniors.
In the film, Tibet symbolizes the progress of its civilization; Shandong province is a metaphor for the people who are looking for their spiritual home during the course of rapid economic development; Beijing stands for a Chinese dream.
The theme of the film is much more profound than the normal ones: the people in the developed eastern area are not only generous givers, but also takers. The meaningfulness of Singing from the Roof of the World not only lies in the presentation of local self-confidence image, but also its self-examination. The low-budget film without any popular stars participating in it has made remarkable achievements, which is a very good start for “regional films.”
