Being different from the other two, \u0022The Ninth Grade\u0022 is more focuses on the education problems of these left behind children, who lacked of parents\u0027 love during their growing-ups. And try to show their psychological changes when stepping into their rebellious ages. The original idea was to follow an ordinary class, however, due to many kinds of concerns, we followed this key class in the end, but the problems exist as much, and there\u0027re still a lot things need the society to think about. Since graduating from university in 2009, I\u0027ve kept using my camera to pay close attentions to these left behind children, and devoted myself to charity panoramas in the past two years, hoping to draw the society\u0027s larger attention on this special group. It always makes me feel helpless to this kids, no matter to shoot their lives or to present them to the public. It\u0027s a serious society problem, sorry that I cannot take more, maybe I\u0027m just a documentary guy after all. Now I just wish to follow these kids with all my life, to witness their growing-ups and their changes, and to tell their stories during this rapid developing era.","wins":0,"nominations":0,"casts":[],"budget":null,"lifetimeGross":null,"openingWeekendGross":null,"worldwideGross":null,"keywords":[],"production":[],"prestigiousAwardSummary":null,"moreLikeThisTitles":[]}
