Summary |
Ayi a 50 ans, des yeux rieurs, des cheveux qui lui tombent en bas du dos. Elle vient d'une province rurale de l'est de la Chine et n'a pas le permis de résident qui lui permettrait de travailler légalement à Shanghai. Pourtant, ça fait 20 ans qu'elle cuisine dans la rue, au cœur d'un quartier de Shanghai voué à une destruction imminente. Ayi et les femmes qui l'entourent bataillent pour gagner leur vie et éviter les Chengguan, la police municipale. Le film nous dévoile le chaos d'une cité ultra-moderne qui œuvre à l'extinction de pratiques jugées insalubres et à l'expulsion d'une population non désirée, incarnée par Ayi |

Ayi is 50 years old, with laughing eyes, hair falling down her back. She comes from a rural province in eastern China and does not have the resident permit that would allow her to work legally in Shanghai. However, she has been cooking on the streets for 20 years in the heart of a Shanghai district doomed to imminent destruction. Ayi and the women around her struggle to earn a living and avoid the Chengguan, the municipal police. The film reveals the chaos of an ultra-modern city that is working to eliminate practices deemed unhealthy and to expel an unwanted population, embodied by Ayi |
