This film was shot in a village called Maidichong in the mountains of Yunnan Province. The village is inhabited by a community of Miao people who are Christians. More than 100 years ago, the British missionary, Samuel Pollard, came to this village, invented the Miao script, and brought faith, education, and medical care to the Miao people. This film tells this history and how their journey of faith was brutally suppressed during the Cultural Revolution. It also presents the challenges they face today.
