Old Heads (Lao Tou), 29 December 2002
8/10
Author: Niels-2 from Copenhagen, Denmark

This documentary is a quiet and almost stillstanding look at life among a group of elderly chineese in a Beijing suburb. Like in the old peoples lifes not much is happening but patience is revarded. You come to learn and feel for these elderly and their relationships. Sometimes you can't help laughing at the way they talk, walk and live. Here is a lot of peptalk about "the young generation" which is quite funny , it's almost like the beautifull Monty Python sketch : "When I was young..." Funny but also tuff to watch at times.
