Our take
The acclaimed Chinese documentarist Wang Bing presents a shortened version of his Three Sisters, a compelling portrait of the fate of three parentless children, in which the innocence of youth provides a distinct viewpoint to observe poverty-stricken lives in the barren landscapes of Yunnan, China.
