Program Note
In 2019, director Zhang Mengqi spent her ninth winter in the village of "47KM" in Hebei Province. "47KM" is her father′s hometown, and she′s completed a film every time she visited. Self-Portrait: Fairy Tale in 47KM is the ninth in her "47KM" series. Alongside village children with red cheeks, director Zhang Mengqi runs around the fi elds, draws, dances, sings, and plays all day, but she doesn’t just play. This time, she decides to bring the children′s imaginative fairy tales into reality: when children draw a house on a winter field, a real house is built on the village hill for the director to live in. The children’s daily life, full of all kinds of games, is a fairy tale in itself,and this film is also a fairy tale. The unadorned gaze and innocence that permeates the tone, mood, and rhythm of this lovely film will make you smile from beginning to end. (KANG Sowon)
