Mother and Son
2022, Chinese. Directed by Dai Xu.
Last year, my mother used her mobile phone to read the news every day to earn gold coins. The gold coins earned at the end of the day could be withdrawn for a few cents. She started to get pain in her wrists from using her cell phone too much. I made a deal with her, asking her to shoot videos for me, and I would give her 1 yuan for each video. Starting from June 30, she would send me videos every week. Until today, she has sent 165 videos, and The materials I shot were edited together to form a book from two places... About the Author Dai Xu, male, born in 1995, is from Yunnan. Graduated from Hebei University, worked in documentary media and short video companies, and now is a bookstore clerk. In 2021, I will film my own life with my mother. The new film "A Book from Two Places" comes from the material shot by myself and my mother.
