土生，土长 Their Roots
In early April 2021, during the Qingming Festival, I attended two funerals: one was for my grandfather from my father’s side in the Tian’s Village, set in the newly developed Xiong'an County, and the other was for my grandfather from my mother’s side in Handan City.

2021的四月初在清明之际，我参加了两场葬礼，一场在坐落于雄安县的大田庄我的爷爷的葬礼，和在邯郸市我姥爷的葬礼。这部纪录片记述了在不同环境和土壤下，人们对于祭奠死亡这种仪式的文化差异，和我感受到的完全不同的情绪。
