One of the most deeply touching films about the individual fate in the Cultural Revolution. Xiu Xiu, a beautiful girl who followed the instructions of Chairman Mao and went to the countryside in nomadic Tibet for "re-education," ended up being a prostitute, driven by her desire to go back to the city and her families. In addition to the extremely heartbroken tragedy, another feature of the film is its setting in the nomadic Tibet and its deep foundation in Tibetan religious culture.
