To Live (1992)


Xu Fugui, the son of a rich landlord, was a compulsive gambler. After he gambled away his family's fortune, his father died. During the Chinese civil war (1945-49), he was forced to join the army. By the time he returned home two years later, he found his mother dead, and his daughter mute and mostly deaf from a fever. Years later, his only son died after a blood transfusion. It seemed that he had nothing to live for, but he did not give up, he believed there was still hope and things would get better.
