This Is A GREAT + Underappreciated Movie!!!

I came across it by accident a few years ago, and every time I've watched it since, I've gotten more from it. It is a very deep & movie. Think about the concept, if you grew up thinking you were one thing, and only to suddenly learn (as does everyone around you) that you are something else, how would that affect your sense of who you were?

This really is a great movie. Thanks to IFC for playing it.

"Tessie" is the Royal Rooters rally cry.
"Tessie" is the tune they always sung.

i agree, it is a good movie (just watched it on IFC), and one that is not as politically heavy as many from that time period regarding china.
