<P>Documentary NOSTALGIA’s Synopsis：</P>
<P>Shanghai is filmmaker Haolun Shu’s hometown, where he also lives and works now. His family has an old house in Da Zhongli, one of Shanghai’s oldest neighborhoods. Shus had lived there for three generations including him. Now his grandma still lives alone at their old house in Da Zhongli. A bad news comes to him that Da Zhongli faces a new round of so-called “Urban Reconstruction”, which means that the whole neighborhood is going to be completely demolished. Then he decides to go back there with camera. </P>
<P>So this is a documentary about Haolun Shu’s revisit to the modest, warm Da Zhongli that has not been yet bulldozed to make way for gleaming skyscrapers, intertwined with his memory of the innocent 1980s in which he had spent living there, and the Shanghai that hadn’t yet become a modern cosmopolitan city full of skyscrapers.</P>
<P> Film Length: 70 minutes, Language: Chinese</P>
