  • In southern China, among the Na, marriage does not exist and women share power. In a village perched in the mountains, Erchema lives cut off from the world with her sister Zhuoma Lacuo. This little corner of paradise is her whole world.
    Next autumn, on her 13th birthday, Erchema will become a woman, as tradition dictates. She will have to interrupt her schooling to work in the fields and help feed the family. She has been chosen to be the next head of the family.
    But on the other side of the mountains, on the shores of Lake Lugu, their older sister Lamu went against tradition and the family's wishes. She married and had a child, whom she is bringing up alone with her husband. Cier and Lamu are prepared to do anything to oppose the clan's decision and allow Erchema and her sister to continue their education.

    No one gonna talk about the guy who tries to convince his uncle to let his (cousin) sisters to go to school? He even offer to let them stay at his house so they can have an education, he and his wife are generous people. Hope all of them do well

      The English translation is bad or intentionally misleading with the Eurocentric arrogonace as if Chinese again is the evil. Mosuo is part of Na/Naxi people,they speak Naxi, different to Madarine that the Han Chinese (90% of the Chinese population ) speaks. So they refer to Han Chinese as Han, and refer themselves as Na/Muosuo, and we call ourselves Han and call them Muosuo, but we are all Chinese. Similar to the situation that Scottish English Welsh all may call themselves British.

    Interesting!! These remote residents of the Chinese provinces live simple life _ but with education, their standards of living could be uplifted _ and they could enjoy the modern way of life.❤ However if tradition insists on tie them down, its sad. The world is rapidly changing and we need to adopt and adapt to these changes in order not to be left far behind 😢
