King of the Children
An unschooled young man, among the many sufferers of Mao's Cultural Change, is labouring in the countryside when he is instantly designated to instruct in a near-by village institution. Progressively, he discovers the confidence to ditch the Maoist textbook as well as motivate the hardly literate children to cover their own lives as well as sensations. At the same time, with a collection of dream-like conferences with a young cowherd, he begins to pick up the possibilities of a life past the parameters of standard education and learning.
