At the same time, there are also some low-cost unpopular works in the Chinese film industry. They take a different approach and are equally shocking in the story presentation and plot twists. Every work cannot be missed. Do you know what movies are there?

Douban Rating: 7.4

Rebellion and resistance are calm in forbearance, and a silent war is secretly breeding between three generations and will eventually break out.
Recommended: is the first film shortlisted for the Golden Rooster Awards screening list, this "Spring Tide" must be the main highlight. If it is the first time you come into contact with Yang Lisen's works, I believe you will be deeply shocked. In the established family space of the film, the collision between characters is displayed to the greatest extent, full of life, and there is no overdramatic design, and the expression of emotions from the female perspective is just right. It is a rare and unpopular masterpiece.
"Send Me to the Clouds"

Douban Rating: 7.1
Sheng Nan (played by Yao Chen) has independent and motivated pursuits, longing for true love but still alone.

With this film, Yao Chen and Wu Yufang and were nominated for Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress respectively.

His life in his later years was lonely and only the old songs in the red envelope field can immerse him in his homesickness. He was born in war, grew up in migration, but he was as tough as weeds. Going home is his eternal hope, and everything in life will eventually be let go.
Recommended: is the directorial debut of powerful actor Qin Hailu. It is the second part of the "Returning Hometown Trilogy" created by Qin Hailu after screenwriter and starring " to Fuyang Six Hundred Miles ".
As mentioned in the film, life will slip into the "two points and one line" inadvertently, just like "it's like sleeping in a coffin" for the rest of your life, so that "there's no difference in making any choice."Some people have buried their lives in the war, and returning home is their only remaining dream. Behind that bitter "dream pursuit" journey is the fierce competition between hope and despair.

Douban score: 7.7
60 years ago, Yuan Dynasty painter Huang Gongwang draws " Fuchun Mountain Residence " with the style of both sides of the strait. In order to welcome the 2022 Asian Games , Fuyang is vigorously carrying out the construction of a new city. Against this background, "Spring River Warm Water" tells the story of four brothers taking turns taking care of their mother who was demented after a stroke on the Fuchun River in Hangzhou. The four families face the test of family affection and life, and the changes in the warmth and coldness of the year are slowly unfolding like a picture.
Recommended: In order to present the real changes in the mountains, rivers and plants on the Fuchun River in time, director Gu Xiaogang chose to create this movie according to the real seasons. He devoted himself to filming for two years before completing the preliminary work. During the shooting, a male actor accidentally got caught in the whirlpool and swam out 20 seconds later, almost in danger of his life.
It is also worth mentioning that the music producer of this film is Dou Wei , and it is used to cut into the painting scenes. Cannes film critic Zhou even chose it as the closing film. It seems that this is another masterpiece of conscience that has to be watched.
"Sherlock on the Plain on "
Director: Xu Lei
Actor: Xu Chaoying / Zhang Zhanyi / Sushuhe
Douban Rating: 7.8
Super Ying flipped the old house, Shuhe came to help cook, but unfortunately he was knocked unconscious on the way to buy vegetables, and the driver who caused the accident escaped. "Chaoying" is in conflict: if you call the police, you cannot go through medical insurance and reimbursement. If the murderer cannot be found, you will have to bear a considerable medical expenses; if you do not call the police, the murderer will be at large, which is too cowardly. In a dilemma, he made an absurd decision: solve the case first, and then call the police.
Recommended : The film gets rid of the high-end interest of intellectuals and turns its focus to the typical public perspective of the countryside. The first part is humorous and light, while the latter part leads to the theme, bringing more reflections on social hot issues. The film also boldly uses non-professional actors, which not only restores the authenticity of rural life, but also "accidentally" the rhythm of humor.
It is worth mentioning that this film won the "Best Movie Text" Award at the 13th FIRST Youth Film Exhibition. Its lively and interesting plot will surely make you shine.
" school district house 72 hours "

Actor: Guanxuan / Xu Xing / Fu Miao / Tu Hua / Rongrong
Douban Rating: 7.1
University Associate Professor Fu Chong sold his existing house within 72 hours, raised enough money, and bought the school district house of the corresponding school.

The two sides hit it off and signed the contract immediately.
When everyone was happy, the seller started to make a price of 400,000 yuan, and the agent also called and said that a customer was willing to buy Fu Chong's residence for the full amount of 2.5 million yuan, and this customer was Chairman Yuan, a student parent who asked Fu Chong. Fu Chong was in a dilemma whether to uphold integrity and fulfill the contract with Aunt Niu, or to break the contract and resell the house at a high price for the future of the child.
Recommendation: There is no familiar face to play roles in the film, no large amount of capital and technology investment, but it was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Small and Medium Cost Feature Film. It is actually not unreasonable. The film takes school district housing as the starting point, which then tears away sensitive issues in social hot spots and can arouse the audience's emotional resonance .
In addition, the film also contains questions about the good and evil of human nature. In the helpless situation, whether to stick to principles or compromise with life is an interesting topic.

Recommended: video not only shows the bond between relatives from the three time points of the past, present and future, but also uses three sisters to reflect the problems faced by people of different ages in life. It is a rare masterpiece.
It is reported that the crew of "The Taste of Pepper" invited Andy Lau to and to participate in the film. His body recovered shortly after reading the script. Andy Lau was moved and decided to arrange his time to star in the film. He could win the praise of King Liu. This film must have its own uniqueness.

Douban Rating: 6.7
The film tells the story of two generations under the constraints of the traditional concept of "family" in China. When the wife finds that her husband is with another man, her family shelter becomes the bondage of ethics.
Recommended: This film is the director Xiang Zi's debut work, and the inspiration for the creation comes from her own experience. Her mother joined a cult organization in 2014. Therefore, Xiang Zi developed an inexplicable sense of humor about that kind of thing when she was a child. When the director gave birth to her first child, she began to persuade her mother, but the mother did not want to communicate with her. Instead, she hoped that her daughter could believe what she believed.

The earliest inspiration for the story of " Balloon " was that Wanma Caidan walked on the streets of Zhongguancun, Beijing. He looked up and saw a red balloon floating in the air, his whereabouts unknown. Wanma Caidan looked at it intriguedly while thinking, and later created a short story of more than 10,000 words and adapted it into a movie.
