In addition to his ID, it also contains a photograph of the wife who left him. Watan heads to the city. Upon returning to places where he was once happy, he recalls a dream about a field of millet. As a young man Xiao Mo had a day job at a Japanese restaurant. He lived in lonely decadence and only he knew what he had lost. One night a girl called him and whispered a love story about a field of millet....“I once went to a tribal village high on the cliff to interview an old man”, says the director. “I listened to him singing and praising the gorgeous view of the field of millet. I set out in search of it. Even though they would tell me that the field was somewhere out there, I never found it. So I dreamed about how it might look in the mountains, caressed by the winds, day and night, from sunrise to sunset. That seemed lonely, I thought, and this was the initiative driving me to shoot the film”.
