The film Last Train Home is documentary style film that deals with the topic of chinease working class trying to find a way home before the new years. We follow a family that has a lot of problems. Both parents left their children with their grandma at a very young age to go to the city and work in factories to make ends means. This tore the family apart and now the two children hold it against their parents. In Cina this is very common for the adults to leave to find work.
From urban to rural, thousands try to find tickets home to their farms and houses in the countryside. Most tickts sell out fast and it is a riot to get one. China has so many people that transportation is a huge issue. The relations between china and america are different being that most americans would be able to drive home while chinease not all have cars to do so.
I thoght this movie was interesting and a good story to follow. I thought that the family had a lot of problems relating back to the fact that the parents left early to work. In america its not common for people to do that. Good movie!
