This is a continuation of the director's documentary series on China's public social spaces... The crew spent about ten months in the emergency room of a hospital in Guangzhou, the largest city in southern China, following the 120 emergency vehicles running day and night through the city to encounter various emergency stories. China has long been the world's second-largest economy, but the government still has to acknowledge that it is a populous developing country. As urbanization and industrialization accelerate, the contradiction between the slow construction of China's social security system and the rapid pace of economic development is increasingly evident. In the emergency room, bizarre and absurd stories are "performed" in front of the camera. On one hand, we see many people who do not cherish their own lives, and on the other hand, we express a yearning for a sound and effective medical security system. Over two thousand years ago, the Chinese philosopher Mencius proposed that the ideal "great harmony" society should be one where "we care for the elderly among us as well as those of others, and we cherish the young among us as well as those of others." In recent years, the "harmonious" society vigorously promoted by the Chinese government seems to stem from this idea. The ideal condition of society should allow everyone to live with dignity and then die with dignity. Finally, we would like to especially thank those ordinary Chinese people who allowed us to film them. During the editing process, we were unable to contact each of them again and seek their consent. Their stories have helped us better understand the society we live in, and this film promises not to engage in any commercial operations.
