They are from all over China, without true names or social relations. They call one another after the names of their hometowns. They make a living by collecting garbage, stealing, begging, and singing. Treading on the fringes of society , these people gather together in the alleys near Nanjing Road. In the hustle and bustle of life, some live hopefully and some happily - others can’t bear the burden and go mad.

梗概 Synopsis
他们来自全国各地,没真实的姓名、没有真实的社会关系,他们用家乡的地名来称呼自己。他们以捡垃圾、偷东西、要饭、卖唱为生。这一群游走于社会边缘人群,他们聚集在南京路的各个巷口。来来去去的生活里有人满怀希望的活着、有人快乐的活着、也有人最终不堪生存压力而疯掉。

第4届中国纪录片交流周评委会奖 Jury Prize。评语:强烈的真实来自作者与拍摄对象之间关系的直接,作品流畅强烈。在大规模城市化和资源不均的背景下,这少数人的生存令我们联想到了自己的生存。
