Dai Yuxin

A Land Behind

Tang returns to a small island formed by the accumulation of floating sand from the Yangtze River, where he runs an organic farm. All these years of work, however, have caused him to deal with difficulties and failures frequently. A mother, who lives in seclusion in the mountains, comes out of isolation to spend a few days with her daughter, Xiao Yu, who works on the same farm. She hopes that the young girl will accompany her back to her old home for the winter solstice. Under her mother's watchful eye, Xiao Yu becomes aware of traumatic issues in his life - and can no longer ignore them. Meanwhile, the farm undergoes a radical change in its operating methods. A storm is approaching that will transform them all.

Breakfast Lunch Dinner

Helmed by three female directors, this omnibus features three films set in China, Thailand and Singapore respectively. Each story occurs at a specific mealtime, and seeks to interpret the frailties and complexities of love through different Asian perspectives. All three stories are tethered with the question, "Will you marry me?" Mirroring the repasts themselves, Breakfast and Dinner are heavier in tone, while Lunch is light with a sprinkle of humor.
