When I saw this last year it was titled 'Good people of the Three Gorges' and IMO it and 'Er Shi Si Cheng Ji' ('24 City') make a double bill that will haunt one for days afterward.

There is a whole genre of Chinese film documenting the cultural, historic and human destruction being perpetrated by the Three Gorges (and other modernization programs) in China and Zhang Ke Jia is the master IMO.
