Bitter memories and lives filled with drama
To the generations that were born in the 1980s and 1990s the history of the zhiqing may appear strange, but for zhiqing themselves, it was unforgettable, especially those who worked in remote and backward places for 10 years. They suffered all kinds of torments, both physical and mental.
To commemorate that time, in November 1985, a group of zhiqing actors staged the play WM Wo Men (We) telling the story of seven zhiqing and their lives in the countryside, their returns to the city and their struggles in a changing society.
