哈尔滨旋转楼梯

住在高楼上的母亲和面临高考的女儿相依为命。住在楼下大杂院里的夫妻为沉迷网吧的儿子而烦恼。两个中国中小城市到处可见的普通家庭，前途未卜的迷惘少年和他们人到中年迷失在生活罗网中的父母。

On a hill in Harbin in China’s Heilongjiang Province in the director’s hometown, a girl neglects her exam preparation in favor of drawing pictures, and her mother wants her to study. Below the hill, a couple is unable to say anything to their son who is always playing with his friends. The feelings of these powerless parents blend with the atmosphere of an unforgiving modern society.

哈尔滨道外区，30年后我回到那里。正如它的名字,道路之外，那里好像被抛在了时代的高速路之外，往日的遗迹还在，当年的青春伙伴依旧生活在那里。只是时光流逝，命运轮回，他们的孩子已是少年少女，正当三十年前我们一起幻想未来时同样的青春。 
我本来是想和他们一起回到过去，寻找我们当年梦想的下落，看看我从哪些路走到了今天。但是我渐渐的被他们的日常生活吸引，被他们身处的幽暗困境吸引。
从表面上看，我和他们有着非常不同的人生，但是通过摄像机的凝视，我在他们身上越来越多地看到我自己的影子：用旧、褪色了的身体和心，在一个据说是开放的世界中的局促，喧嚣盛世里的孤独乏力，根本配不上少年时代我们对未来的信仰。幸好，又有少男少女们来到，又有不驯服的青春，大门不会被关死的。  
我想在这个电影里重新看自己，看我们人生中途这片幽深的密林。电影对于我，是不断唤醒自己的镜子，是和疏远的世界重新结合的仪式，是招魂术。
After thirty years away, I returned to the Daowai ("outside-of -the -road")District of Haerbin.
Exactly as its name suggests ,it looks like a place that has been thrown outside the expressway of time.
Traces of the past still exist ,and buddies from my youth still live three .It's just that time has passed,fate has come around ,and my buddies' children are already young adults,at around the same age as when we dreamt our future passionately 30 years ago.

On the surface ,my old friends and I have different lives:I have been to faraway places ,I do things I like ,and I persistently seek to express myself.But the more I am with them ,the more I see the shadow of myself :an old and faded body and mind.We slaved away in a society said to be open ,yet found ourselves forsaken and powerless in this balanced and stable world .It is completely different from the trust and admiration of the future we had when we were young .But fortunately ,forever fearless young boys and young girls move forward ;hereafter,the door will never be shut.

What happened to our lives?Through this film ,I wanted to observe myself anew ,and look into the deepest recesses myself anew ,and look into the deepest recesses of the jungles of our lives.For me ,film is a way to reawaken myself .It is a medium to call back my spirit .
