Return to Dust

On Tuesday, April 25, The Dock's Classic Cinema presents the tender Chinese drama, Return To Dust.

Elegantly shot and beautifully acted, this film shows a side of Chinese society rarely seen on cinema screens.

Set in the rural Gansu region of China the story focuses on Ma and Cao - two people seen only as inconveniences by their respective families. They are cast off and forced into an arranged marriage.

Living a simple but challenging farming life, Ma and Cao gradually fall in love. Together, they decide to build their own modest home. However, a state-ordered demolition process threatens their very way of life.

See the original, uncensored version at The Dock, on Tuesday, April 25 at 11.30am.
