I create documentaries about ordinary lives, nostalgia, and memory in rural China: micro worlds you don’t see on the news. I want to protect what existed before the Internet: an old style of life that has quietly continued for thousands of years but is now about to disappear in modern life.
This is my first Chinese documentary series, Before Disappearing. It records the unique dialects of my hometown through my grandma’s experience. I want to show you the voice and language that AI cannot recreate: spoken within a small town, carried through daily life, rarely found online, and vanishing as generations change.
