He bian you ge hao di fang

In a rural Chinese primary school where everything and everyone is stuck in their ways, the visit of the principal's cousin brings a refreshing wind. Her non-Confusian views help the left behind find their footing.

This delightful mainland Chinese movie is simple in it's story and message, yet manages to suck you in from the first minute through great acting, set design, music, and cinematography.

In style and theme it reminds of the Taiwanese movie Yi Yi, but this movie still has plenty of uniqueness to offer. If you're always on the lookout for a new hidden gem from mainland China, this movie is for you.
