An unforgettable portrait of the tectonic shifts happening in rural China-told through the microcosm of one small town

The Sacred Clan tells the story of Wu Township, following its journey as it succumbs to the competition of the urbanised metropolises. Telling the narrative through the town, several short stories give a glimpse into the lives of those who stayed over the years, and how their way has changed in the wake of China's rapid economic development.
