sohu entertainment news (shan jin/text) the 8th pingyao international film festival released the preface and film guide of the retrospective exhibition "this handful of soil", detailing the 3 documentary shorts and 9 classic films about land carefully selected for this retrospective. "this handful of soil" is also the theme of the 8th pingyao film festival.

the films in this retrospective range from the 1930 soviet classic "the land" to the 1963 milestone of the brazilian new cinema movement "the hard times", from the cannes film festival palme d'or winners "the clog tree" and "pell the conqueror" to abbas's masterpiece "the long flow of life", spanning the entire 20th century in terms of time and looking at the hot spots in different regions of the world in terms of space, including france, the former soviet union, india, japan, brazil, italy, denmark, iran and other countries. in addition, two chinese films were selected, namely "serfs", a masterpiece directed by li jun in the 1950s, and "yellow earth", the pioneering work of the fifth generation of directors and directed by chen kaige.

the pingyao international film festival said that the films screened in this retrospective, to varying degrees, all describe the relationship between people and the land, explore traditional interpersonal connections, and observe the emotional changes of human beings. in the history of film, how to absorb the spirit of these films, pay attention to people's real experiences, and continue to create films in the future? this has become a question of particular concern for this pingyao film festival.

the 8th pingyao international film festival will be held from september 24 to 30 at the pingyao film palace in the ancient city of pingyao, jinzhong city, shanxi province.
