Please join the USC U.S.-China Institute for a screening of Iron Moon: The Poetry Of Chinese Migrant Workers, a documentary following Chinese workers who use poetry as a tool to express the hidden life stories and experiences of people living at the bottom of the society. The film is in Chinese with English subtitles.
What: Screening - Iron Moon 我的诗篇
When: Thursday, November 17, 2016, 4:00-6:00pm
Where: Wallis Annenberg Hall, ANN 106
Cost: Free.
About the Film
An assembly line worker in an Apple factory who commits suicide at the young age of 24, leaving behind 200 poems of despair-"I swallowed an iron moon....."; a guileless lathe operator who is rebuffed at every turn, living in the world of his poetry; a female clothing factory worker who lives in poverty but writes poetry rich in dignity and love; a coalminer who works deep in the earth year round, trying to contact and make peace with the spirits of his dead coworkers through his poetry; and a goldmine demolitions worker who blasts rocks several kilometers into mountainsides to support his family, while writing poetry to carry the weight of his fury and affections-"My body carries three tons of dynamite...." They could be any of the 350 million workers in China, and yet these five are also poets. Using poetry as a tool to chip away at the ice of silence, they express the hidden life stories and experiences of people living at the bottom of the society. This is one story behind the sudden rise of China, and a mournful song of global capitalism.
"我咽下一枚铁做的月亮......"一名苹果手机的流水线工人自杀身亡，年仅24岁，留下200多首绝望的诗歌；一名不懂人情世故处处碰壁的叉车工，固执地活在诗歌的世界里；一名制衣女工，生活窘迫艰难，却用高贵的心灵谱写爱意；一名常年劳作于地心深处的煤矿工人，宛如地狱来客，用诗歌为苦难的兄弟们立言和招魂；"我身体里有炸药三吨"，一名金矿爆破工，在几千米矿洞深处开山炸石，养家糊口，用诗歌承载怒火和深情。他们是3.5亿中国工人中普普通通的几位，同时又是令人惊异的诗人；他们不约而同拿起诗歌这一武器，来打破沉默的坚冰，抒发底层劳动者不为人知的悲欢离合与生死命运。这是一个中国崛起背后的传奇故事，一首资本全球化世界的哀歌。
