Game Theory

Directed by Wang Qingren

In one instant, the Earth-God turned away... in the mountains and on the plains, all living creatures met their fate, but Time marched on...

This is a story about a five-year battle waged between the farmers of two villages and the local government over land-use rights. This documentary illustrates the subtle changes being made to the rules of the game between officials and citizens, and provides deep human insight into the loss, despair and increasing awareness experienced by common farmers in the pursuit of land-use rights.
