"Happiness" by Jojo--Film

Introduction to Happiness

The film lasts for 4 minutes and 30 seconds, and has been shooting for three years. With the passage of seasons as timeline and with the technique of poetic prose, it records the survival and living condition of the wildlife in the wet land of the middle and lower reaches of Yellow River, and delivers the spirit yearning of “Inhabitation with Delight” amidst the current condition of environmental pollution and ecological destruction.

It is just like what Haizi, the poet, said in his poem: From tomorrow on, I will be a happy man. Grooming, chopping, and travelling all over the world. From tomorrow on, I will care foodstuff and vegetable, living in a house towards the sea, with spring blossoms.
