Liu Xiaodong in Indonesia

Short film by Yang Bo.

Agaar, a young shepherd in Inner Mongolia, is a modern youth who believes that traditional herding cannot get him his dream car - a BMW. He once learned English online, got a job on a cruise ship, and traveled around the Caribbean. For ambitious Agaar, the grassland is too small. He tries to change its future with a smartphone and the internet.

The contemporary Chinese artist Liu Xiaodong traveled to the border of the United States and Mexico for his new painting project. Faced with complicated border and refugee issues, a foreign country, and stranger people, he used his Chinese sensibility and artist’s simplicity to find inspiration for his creation.
