DAY TRIPPER

YI RI YOU / 2023 / China / 90 min

On an ordinary day in a city in northern China, people struggle with their lives as usual. A middle-aged man finds his position replaced by a younger person and doesn't know where to go. A wife yearns for a new life. She tries to move to a new place and break up with her lover. High school students are numbly arranged in the schoolyard, while a young teacher is trying to change the traditional education system. At a remote bus stop, people wait all day for a bus that will never stop there. The owner of a barbershop forces the barbers to go to the streets to attract customers. Similarly, a barbecue shop owner is transforming his shop into a nightclub. When night falls, people finish their work and come to the new nightclub, losing themselves in the gorgeous illusion.
