Brief Synopsis： *The lives of China's elderly unfold brilliantly in Smoke Signal Projects new documentary film 'I Want to Grow Old in China'*
Set in China's capital Beijing, 'I Want to Grow Old in China' documents the stunning multimedia spectacle taking place in the city's parks performed by thousands of elderly each morning. From gymnastics to disco-dancing, bird training to singing, together they have a hunger for living in their later years. Intimate and character driven, the documentary follows four distinct groups as their lives and rituals unfold each morning. 'I Want to Grow Old in China' highlights the spontaneity, passion, diligence and poetry created in the public spaces of Beijing, creating a unique situation where longevity meets performance.
This film could not come out at a better time as issues around aging populations are at the forefront of international discussion. 'I Want to Grow Old in China' presents an alternative angle on China, enriching the viewer's understanding of one of the most discussed country of the moment. The Smoke Signal Projects team has gone in-depth and local, giving the viewer an opportunity to enter a world they have previously not had access to. The documentary can be viewed as a unique tool in bringing timely ideas and striking images from East to West and across generations, creating alternative discourses to growing old.
