Woman Sesame Oil Maker

China 1992 | 106 minutes | Mandarin | Hebrew subtitles

A sesame oil mill on the banks of an idyllic lake. The mill owner, an intelligent, spirited woman is lonely. The quality of the sesame oil produced makes a Japanese business woman become her partner. Beyond the business acumen and the successful image, hides a sad woman who feels that her life is a failure. Xie Fei presents a poetic film about the status of women in rural China.
