Dragon Ridge

The film was filmed in 1994 and recorded the story of a place called Dragon Ridge in the mountains of Guangxi. The natural environment is poor, resources are scarce, and the hard-working and kind Hongyao people have lived here for more than 300 years. The mountains cut off contact with the outside world and cut off the 'pollution' of civilization. However, the impoverished children here do not give up their desire for knowledge. Despite difficult conditions and poor facilities, most children stay in school. In order to be able to provide children with books, parents cut down on food and clothing, and some children go to work-study programs at a young age. This film won grand prize at the 1995 Sichuan International Television Festival.

Holler

In a forgotten pocket of Southern Ohio where American manufacturing and opportunity are drying up, a determined young woman finds a ticket out when she is accepted to college. Alongside her older brother, Ruth Avery joins a dangerous scrap metal crew in order to pay her way. Together, they spend one brutal winter working the scrap yards during the day and stealing valuable metal from the once thriving factories by night. With her goal in sight, Ruth finds that the ultimate cost of an education for a girl like her may be more than she bargained for, and she soon finds herself torn between a promising future and the family she would leave behind.
