A documentary look at life in and the residents of Shaziying Village, Shunyi District, an agricultural area on the outskirts of Beijing. In the director's words: "2008 was China's "Year of the Olympics," so of course my film My Village 2008 is related to this. My village is located in the suburbs of Beijing, and had its own Olympic activities, its own leg of the torch relay. Before the Olympics started, we received notices that all the gravesites on the edge of the main highway would need to be moved. They were "eyesores." Our entanglement with the media continued through this year. Beijing Television, Austrian Television, Chinese Central Television (CCTV), and even our very own Shunyi County Television have come through. They were interested in the topic "The Olympics Change Lives," and felt that my filming DV and making films should be fodder for that topic. This year, our village's crops experienced intense drought and torrential downpours. My aunt, who had been sick for several years, passed away. This year was also the 10-year anniversary of my own mother's death. It was also the year my daughter took the College Entrance Exams and got into college. My film records all these bits and pieces of our everyday lives, since they, too, are a part of my family's and my fellow villagers' life experiences
