Merry christmas, Yiwu
In the Chinese town of Yiwu there are 600 factories that produce Christmas ornaments for shipment to the rest of the world. The factory workers are migrants in their own country, and the pay allows them to buy the latest version of iPhone, but the dormitories are small. Their sparetime is spent on dating issues, community and outlooks for the future. The young ones are already fed up with the long working hours in the toxic fumes, and they don't care that their parents want them to have an education. In the borderline between the old, Chinese traditions and the new, Chinese dreams they hope to have their own business, become rich and independent and find love.
