One of the most bizzar but at the same time beautiful movie I have seen in a while... The movie started out with a mixed blood orphan in rural China at the end of culture revolution some time end of 60s beginning of 70s, was sent to a remote village as an intern to a crazy old botanist.
initially I thought this movie had real potential, a mixed blood girl in the craziest time in Chinese history is bound to tell a unique story. but that was only a beginning, the film suddenly turned into a lesbian movie!! a most pleasant surprise indeed, the movie is bizzar and makes little sense, but definitely is unique and beautiful. not to mention the breath taking scenes from the tropical south China.
by the way, anyone knows what language was the film originally shot in? I saw the Chinese version, but the dialogues seem to be dubbed and unatrual...
