On October 24th, a concert named "Yellow River Ballad—Wild Children Band 20th Anniversary Concert," organized by Shu Music, will be held at the Workers' Gymnasium in Beijing. It will feature an extravagant lineup of folk music's golden generation, including Wan Xiaoli, Xiaohe, Zhou Yunpeng, Wu Tun, Hu Defu, and the "King of Chinese Rock Stage," Xie Tianxiao, taking turns to witness and participate in this extraordinary musical event. In addition to Beijing, the Wild Children Band's 20th-anniversary concert will also take place on a grand stage in Shanghai. However, the significance of the Wild Children band within the folk music community over the past twenty years far exceeds the significance of this performance.
12 August 2002 is the date which was printed on every shot in this film by the memory of the camera.

The voice-over consists of a phone call by the author John Berger (1926), who has written numerous and radical opinion pieces in favour of the people of Palestine.

Now, the tainted ancient soil sits beneath the glittering lights of Banana Republic, Victoria’s Secret, and the AMC movie theaters. “Shellmound” examines the decisions made during the recent toxic cleanup, excavation, and construction of the Bay Street mall through the eyes of the city of Emeryville, the developer, the archaeologists, and the native Californians who worked on the site.

For the people of Sauerland and Siegerland, the A45 was a road of hope - the starting signal for the economic region of South Westphalia. A place of longing and a destination for drives.
