In 2007, when Yang Heng entered Busan Film Festival (the second largest film festival in Asia after Tokyo Film Festival) with the film "betel nut" costing 30000 yuan, he won the sina tide award, which is the competition unit award of the festival. When he won the sina tide award, maybe he didn't know or care. He subverted some rules of the game with an established fact.
If the independent film is a "guerrilla" with scattered troops, the award-winning is the ladder for the director to enter the room. Yang Heng is not bound by "going into the room". He is still the "idle man" who loves movies, likes to express himself and immerses himself in himself all the time. The seventh generation? That's what other people say. It's none of his business. What Yang Heng is interested in is his films and his right to speak. Every movie is Yang Heng's "play" catharsis. If he can make one more movie, he will "earn" one more time in his life. As for the fame and fortune or future pursued by many people, it may be a ruin in Yang Heng's heart. They have long been left far behind by him and are not worth mentioning.

[synopsis]
This is a story about the boring life of two bad teenagers. Unlike the youth movie, betel nut has no sunny youth story, no passionate love story, only no portrait of future youth
Stealing motorcycles, robbing children's money, fighting group fights and childish love make director Yang Heng shoot pictures like landscape paintings. The boating scene in the film seems to recall the afternoon and summer, and the future is as leisurely as a vacation. The director emphasizes peace rather than despair.
Take a look at the movie where you leave your girlfriend by boat after breaking up with your boyfriend. The sleepy look makes you feel that for director Yang Heng, the story itself doesn't seem so important, but connecting the story points is even more important. From this point, we can see that this betel nut is indeed a youth movie with unique style.
Light spot
[synopsis]
The 31 fixed position lenses constitute a breathtaking picture frame. Yang Heng's second long film "facula" is a strong visual style in Shen Congwen's border town. It describes the intensified human relationship with original film language. The film won the gold medal of digital unit of Hong Kong Film Festival 2010 and was shortlisted for Rotterdam International Film Festival 2010
.
The lake
[synopsis]
A quiet town, a blue lake, a soft sofa, a lonely time. The days of communication, the past sun and moon, form a colorful album. In this unknown place, listen to nature's rustle, talk to you, and touch an emotion. The film "that lake" shows the hero Tian Li's experience in a small town in Western Hunan during his youth, and deduces a samsara comedy about survival.
Strange guest in the empty mountain
[synopsis]
"Strange guest in an empty mountain" started shooting in September 2016. It tells the story of a middle-aged man's attitude towards life and the process of looking for himself in the spiritual level when he returns to his hometown.
