Well Done Wake

Last year I began to help get Wake get his work out of China. He inspires me. We are from totally different walks of life, we have experienced different lifestyles, however, he is a punk, a nomad, a traveler, born from the chaos of the 70's. This is where we connect.

Synopsis

Beiting Village is Yi minority in southern China, Yunnan. 
Pu Chengping's family are moving from their old house to a new house. It is a greatly important event, the same as a marriage. The local people call it "Shang Xin Fang - move to new house". 
To help celebrate properly, Pu Chengping's family will choose a good day to hold a moving ceremony, by asking Chinese astrologers to make the auspisous time. They will kill pigs and cattle, enough to hold a 3-4-day celebration banquet. According to the custom all the village folk including children will come to help. After the feast, everyone will sing together playing their traditional instruments and dance. They want to follow the old traditions, but the family really do not know exactly how the procedure should be. 
  
Through the ceremony of "Shang Xin Fang", the film reflects the improvement of the life of ethnic minorities in the mountainous area, and also shows the impact of economic development on the traditional culture of ethnic minorities.

CHEZ LISE

It was the anniversary of Deanna's death on the 6th June, and to celebrate her memory I wrote her story here in my newsletter:


​SOAPS & SAGAS storytelling the quotidian
​
Pierre Siry  Jeanette ton documentaire et ton commentaire m'ont arraché les larmes.
​C'est une histoire déchirante. Très touchant (no pun intended). (Your documentary and commentary had me in tears. A story that rips you, very touching. (no pun intended.)


​Sheila Lewis Kanter Jeanne . . . had never seen this before! Such a moving “peek” into a very 
different world from our own. Thank you! It was short’n sweet. But powerful.
                                                            

Alvaro P As usual, no fireworks, just a gentle pull at the heart strings and a subtle opening of the         
tear ducts. Classically, Jeanne Pope
