Long Ge plot
For ten years, Ah Long led a nomadic life as a junkie in the Chinese city of Guangzhou, with director Zhou Hao following him for the last three years. It produces many images in sad hostels where the junkies argue or sit in bed lethargic, lighting one cigarette with the other and putting a syringe in their bodies. Zhou Hao films the misery without compassion and is constantly literally close to the skin, although in the end nobody shows the back of his tongue. They have a 'friend' to whom they can tell their story and with whom they can borrow money, but he remains the journalist for them.
