Life

A 1995 film co-directed by Kang Jianning and Gao Guodong that, most likely, grew out of their earlier film Sand and Sea, and saw at least Kang returning to the family in the desert that he interviewed for that film. Not to be confused with another film of this same title by Kang, from 2003, which includes more up-to-date footage, was itself edited down for broadcast on Chinese TV as part of the 'The Weight of Time' series, and does not include any contributions from Gao Guodong.
