The Road Home

Rating:
Summary: simple and beautiful film
Review: This film begins when a young man returns to the remote village where he grew up. His father has died and his mother has made a request -- that the village men carry him back from the regional hospital on foot according to tradition so that he will alway know his way home. The problem is that there are no young men left in the village, they have all gone to the city. As the young man examines his mother's wishes, he relates the story of his parents' courtship. This is a simple love story that is beautiful and compelling.

DVD extras are few: 5 trailers and filmographies for the director and star. The film can be heard in Mandarin or French, and subtitles are available in English or French.
