After A Village in a Cave (1996), documentarian and anthropologist Hao Yuejun spent another two years doing fieldwork in the village cage. This film is regarded as a sequel, telling a different story of the same people in the same cave village. Five years after electricity has become available in this village, news from the provincial capital once again disrupts things. A Relocation Working Group, sent by the local government, informs the villagers that they must move out of the increasingly harsh cave environment where they have been living for 200 years. Then, in the biggest remaining cave village in the world, more disturbances take place and conflicts emerge. This film not only records the process or relocation, but it depicts the culture, the lifestyle, the politics, and the social development of a Chinese rural area, while also recording the evolution of Chinese rural society.
