Smitten Iron Flower

This movie goes deep into Yulin, Shaanxi Province, to explore and record the unique local technique of iron-showering. Under the night curtain of firelight and starlight, the craftsmen sprinkle hot iron into the sky and blossom into a shocking fire tree and silver flowers. This ancient and exquisite skill not only shows the Yulin people’s reverence for and control of fire, but also carries a deep cultural heritage and national spirit. Through this movie, we will take you to appreciate the beauty of this non-heritage and feel the blend of tradition and modernity.
