Made in China (2020) offers a raw glimpse into the lives of a father-son duo navigating the complexities of modern Chinese society. Set in Shenzhen, the documentary captures the palpable tension and emotional weight of their journey back home for Chinese New Year. The pacing is steady, almost meditative, allowing viewers to soak in the atmosphere of their industrial surroundings contrasted with the warmth of familial ties. The father, Yu Ting Yong, and son, Yu Liang Yuan, deliver genuine performances that make you feel the grind of their daily lives alongside the hope and nostalgia of returning home. It's distinctive in its unvarnished portrayal of the struggles faced by many in contemporary China, giving it an authenticity that lingers long after the credits roll.
