My Memories of Old Beijing

A tender, melancholic portrait of childhood discovery in 1920s Beijing, where innocence encounters grief and loss through the eyes of a young girl.

It is the late 1920s when six-year-old Yingzi and her family move to Beijing. As Yingzi explores the busy streets and alleys, she befriends a widow who, driven mad by grief, stands vigil at the entrance of her hutong, waiting for her missing daughter to return.
