About This Movie
The Chinese Plaster is a contemplative documentary that dives deep into the life of Li Ruicheng, the latest custodian of a long-standing family business steeped in tradition. The film's pacing is deliberate, almost reflective, as it captures the tension between heritage and modernity—especially as Li's children lean towards their own paths. The atmosphere is rich with the nuances of familial duty, and the practical effects of the plaster-making process bring a tactile authenticity.
