《Fish under the ice》

影片简介

This movie tells the story of an old man in an old industrial city in northeastern China during the seven days before the winter fishing begins. A few years after her husband's death, 82-year-old Zhao Lihua suffers from mild depression. When she tried to take a bath in the staff bath, she was repeatedly turned away and humiliated. The son, Zhu Hongbing, struggles to find two women to accompany his mother to the bath, a seemingly simple daily routine that seems to be extremely difficult for the mother and son. In the end, her mother did not realize her wish to take a bath in the staff bath, even though she had worked in the factory all her life. For Zhao Lihua, the "bath" was a baptismal self-cleansing, and leaving with dignity and "peace" was her final choice. ......
