Rebirth 1994

31-Year-old Chen Guoqing accidentally traveled back to his hometown in 1994 - an ordinary village in Jianghan Plain. Not only did he return to the year before his birth as an adult, but he also integrated into this familiar yet unfamiliar family as a "distant relative". Here, he witnessed his young parents, Chen Jianguo, his taciturn but silently shouldering the burden of the family, working hard between the fields and the family. There is also the brother-in-law Chen Jianjun who is in his youth and yearns for the outside world, and the grandfather Chen Yonggui who expresses his love with stubbornness and silence. There is no grand plot, only trivial daily life immersed in time. Electric fish on summer nights, lively village fairs, enthusiastic "marriage urging" among neighbors... Chen Guoqing, in his dual capacity as a bystander and participant, personally experienced these poor but warm years.
