Renowned documentary director Gu Tao recounts his journey into indie filmmaking and his years living with Ewenki herders in northern China
We live in a modern society now.
It’s swallowed us up.
Our hunting culture
is disappearing.
Society is becoming industrialized
and turning the world into
a miserable place.
If the police of a more civilized world
shoot at me,
then I’ll say
“Go ahead, shoot!”
—Weijia, former Ewenki hunter
