Living A Hard Life

Living A Hard Life

I am really impressed and moved after watching the film project "Last Train Home". There exists so many migrant workers throughout China and all of them are not only suffering the feeling of sorrow that they have to leave behind loved ones, but also trying their best to work laboriously with low payback. When I saw the scenes of jammed train station, I can understand their anxiety of coming back soon. In my view, it is their most desired moment through the year.

After seeing this film i was very taken back. I was very surprised that in this day and age there still exists a country like this. The total control that the government has over its people is unimaginable and the camps are just as mind-blowing as that. As an outsider I can hardly grasp what it must feel like to live and grow up in this mind-controlling society and to wrestle up the courage to escape. I cannot imagine what these people have gone through for most of their lives and that they ended up leaving their country. It is a very touching story and the survivors are more than happy to have escaped certain death by their own government.
