Synopsis

This is the life of one Chinese farmer, and the collective story of generations of fathers. From the yellow earth of eastern Henan to construction sites in Wuhan, Chen Gensheng spent 61 years enduring famine, unpaid wages, and scorn, giving everything he had to help his children leave rural life behind. He never held public office or made a fortune, yet with his stooped shoulders he held up a family, and with his simple kindness he warmed an entire city. A tribute to every ordinary yet extraordinary Chinese farmer.
