Moving House Reflection
Population issue is a quite significant issue for many countries, like Singapore in the documentary as well as China. The land is limited, so many people are forced to move to another place. Some memories and past items are lost. However, reconstruction is necessary during the process of building a modern society. These tragic experiences faced by the “person in the street” are worth taking pity on. The cost of this supposed “prosperity” is incalculable. And these costs are often borne by the bottom of the barrel. The beneficiaries tend to be the higher class of people. Jiang Ziyan 3036264602

[Class exercise] “Moving House” Reflections by Liu Yuhan
After watching the film, I felt very sad and touched. The protagonist mentioned that people want to be buried in a place with good “feng shui” to absorb it after death, but the expansion of the city forced them to move the remains of their loved ones, cutting off their relation with land and tradition. It is a very heavy feeling that urbanization should be accompanied by loss and regret. Liu Yuhan 3036126654

Reflection “Moving House”
The movie showcasing the outside-in of the apartment was nice. The remains of the dead parents moved to a new place showcasing the culture and the religious beliefs of the parents. The religious touching of the movie shows the cultural differences and the remnants of the cutures.

The camera is not completely stable, but shaking slightly. This may show the family members’ uncertainty and hesitation when relocating their ancestors. The viewers stand at a quite close distance from the characters, which places the audience as another member of their family. People have to change the ancester’s home from unfer the groud to a narrower and colder closets, even this counter to their believes.

Through intimate interviews and poignant visuals, Tan Pin Pin captures the nostalgia, attachment, and sense of belonging that the residents have towards their homes. I think the film also highlights the larger social and cultural implications of urban redevelopment, raising questions about progress, community, and the preservation of heritage.

Home is like a rope that holds all our memories of childhood. No matter where we get lost, we can follow the rope and find our way home. LIU Junhe 3035948469
Reflection of Lecture 6: Moving House
There are many people in a traditional family for many generations especially in the countryside of China, meaning that a person may have a lot of siblings as well as many relatives. And it is also a tradition for the whole family to worship their ancestors together. They also pay attention to the feng shui of the place and the metaphorical meaning behind something or somewhere. I think even today with the rapid development of technology which may bring a result of the disappearance of such a culture or the physical place where the tradition of the culture happens, we
