Life of Years

In 2001, in a barren village on the Loess Plateau, 18-year-old Wang Fan squatted at the entrance of the village, with endless loess in front of him, and his family was in an awkward situation. The temptation of fifty yuan a day was like a bright light that shined into his gloomy life and led him to a road of "quick money" full of thorns. From being uneasy to becoming accustomed to it, he walked hard on the tightrope between morality and survival. This documentary novel truly records from a first-person perspective how an ordinary rural youth was gradually involved in the gray whirlpool of the times, his struggles, his choices, and the road of no return.
