I Wish I Knew
2010. China. Directed by Jia Zhangke. 18 people from Shanghai, Taipei, and Hong Kong recall their lives in Shanghai from the 1930s to 2010.

Leaving meant being separated form home for 30 years, remaining meant suffering through the Cultural Revolution and other Chinese political upheavals. International Film Selection.
