Microfilms took off in China in late 2011. These small budget films are shot by both up-and-coming directors and experienced filmmakers alike. They are also the favorites of advertisers.
What if time could be split so that we could know the outcomes of our decisions? That's the question this contemplative short film raises. In the first installment, we meet a young doctor caring for his ailing father.
Part two of this moving story sees our protagonist flash back to his childhood as he recalls fond memories of his beloved father.
Things take a strange turn as our hero enters the mysterious time archives where he learns that time has been split into two and he has an alternate self who has made different choices in life.
Jianshui gets to see what would have happened if he'd followed his colleague's advice and taken his father back to their hometown to live out his last days.
