Xue chan AKA Little Moth AKA La Môme Xiao (2007)

[Image]
A couple purchases an eleven-year old girl who cannot walk, with the intention of using her to earn money through begging.
Talk about box office poison, the grim, low-budget Chinese film Little Moth (playing again at 5:20 p.m. on April 29 at St. Anthony Main) turned out to be my Saturday night date with dystopia. A no-good husband and wife buy an eleven-year-old girl so she can beg for them on the streets. The little girl can’t walk, but the man won’t let his wife spend money on medicine that could treat her paralysis.

Soon, another child trafficker enters the picture, unhappy that the couple is working the same block where his one-armed boy also begs. One night, the man drinks too much and the boy escapes with the little girl on his back. The wife and shady-man-number-two take off after them, and the story only gets bleaker.

With no musical score to cue our disgust; a cast of amateur actors; and jittery, handheld camerawork, the film has a nonjudgmental, documentary-style aesthetic that isn’t quite so much detached as it is buffering. Imagine what Steven Spielberg would have done with the same story and one-hundred-times the budget. It’s not a pleasant thought.
Trailer...

Took weeks to load, finally finished... turns out it's a DRM-protected WMV file. :(

I'm sure this will be "enjoyed" even without subs if you'd care to share it. Sounds like a gritty film, maybe hard to watch.

Damn!! It would seem that I've JUST rented this movie from Amazon.com:

http://www.amazon.com/Little-Moth-Xue-C ... 423&sr=1-1

:wall

It says 'For Home Use ONLY'... And tells me "You have until Feb 13, 10:40 PM PST to complete watching this 7-day rental online or download it."

Does anyone know if there is a way to create an avi or mpg file from this site??

I HATE when I surf for movies late at night [it's almost 2:00am; pretty late for me..] as I'm OCD and my ability to control my urges is severely hindered by lack of sleep... :wall

Anyway, the movie is mine now for 7 days once I start viewing it. Any help in being able to d/load it would be appreciated.. (OR if someone else with the know-how wants to rent it too, and d/load, that's fine with me.. :D

kev.

my earlier comment on this was correct,it's depressing :( ,very little activity of any kind.
the little girl doesn't smile or change her expression at all :cry: or appear to speak a word in the whole movie,she wears the same clothes throughout until the last 15mins or so.They could have replaced her with a doll and nobody would've noticed(maybe they did :) )

filename is as i found it and caps are unedited.
