PROJECT SUNSHINE FILM NIGHT

LAST TRAIN HOME

Every spring, China’s 130 million migrant workers travel back to their home villages for the New Year’s holiday. This exodus is the world’s largest human migration.

“Last Train Home” is a film which follows the Zhangs, a family living in China’s rural but poor heartland. Mother and father go to work in the city in order to better provide for their children. For sixteen years we see the progress of parents and children and see what happens to a family when they meet only once a year during the Spring Festival.

The parents of 62 million children in China leave their villages to work in cities.

PROJECT SUNSHINE – THE MOVIE
