Country: China
Directed by Zhang Yimou
Directed with a semi-documentary neo-realistic style with amateur actors, 'Not one less' is very emotional without any of the cheap tricks that the sugary movies and melodramas usually use. The movie is speaking about the gap between the rural and the urban China, about the educational problems, about the poor that have to try hard to improve their lives. The film easily can be mistaken as pro-government propaganda but in my opinion is not: even if the director followed the rules and the censors set by Chinese government , so avoided to show too much misery or to portray the state as part of the problem, this the message of the movie for social changes is still quite loud.
