Leading Chinese Sixth Generation filmmaker Jia Zhangke returns home to Fenyang in Shanxi province after winning the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival for Still Life (2006).

The documentary forms a poignant inquiry into the past of the director's life and Chinese society at the same time.
