Overview
Street Life documents the lives of Chinese migrants in Shanghai, one of the worldโs largest and most vibrant cities, now symbolic of Chinaโs economic might. The film centers on Nanjing Road, one of Chinaโs oldest commercial streets and today a popular destination for tourists and moneyed Chinese. The street has also become a Mecca for uprooted and homeless Chinese, who make ends by collecting garbage and recyclables. These characters and their stories are the focus of the film. The central character in Street Life is a migrant known as โBlack Skin.โ Black Skin faces numerous pressures in the course of the film, including police violence. In the end, these pressures are too much for him to bear and he goes mad. Black Skinโs story intersects with those of fellow bottle collectors, enterprising thieves and even a young boy who has been abandoned.
