Not so long ago I was looking for a Chinese (drama) movie in some website and I came across the movie ''Postmen in the mountains'' I directly fell in love with the poster and decided to watch it as soon as possible, but I was too impatient that I couldn't wait any longer as you can see. And the truth is that I loved this movie, I did not expect much from it but it captured my heart since the very first second and actually this is not often that a movie makes me feel that good. So basically this movie is about a young man who decides to follow his father's footsteps after his retirement :becoming a postman. Before retiring the father accompanies his son in the rural mountains of Hunan where he delivered mails to the villagers, villagers he knows very well and so he told his son that being a postman is not only a job where you deliver mails but you have to give all your love in it and understand well all these people, because they are the one who'll make him enjoy this job which is actually not an easy one since he has a long way to go before doing the work properly and so his fathher is going with him for his first time to show him the ropes, his father told him this ''as long as you have dreams you live, a life without dreams is not a life fully lived, same goes with this mail route it is tough but you meet nice people , you learn a lot on this route,then you find new meaning in the job. The villagers give your job a meaning, their life gives you a new meaning'' this sentence will remain in my heart for a very long time*0*! A part from that I loved the father/son bonding here, I was so touched by their interactions. Here we have a son who does not even know anything about his father but on this long journey he will learn more about him than he could have learnt in his childhood and teenager's days , and so many scenes deeply touched me especially one when the son is carrying his father on his back, absolutely one of my favorite scene of the movie. Well I won't say much you have to see it with your own eyes and I'm sure you'll feel the same way as I did ! I'm sincerely glad I was able to watch such an underrated gem, it's the kind of movie which makes me forget about everything around me and allows me to enjoy every part of it without worrying about the rest. I think these words perfectly describe the movie : Calm, poetic, breathtaking, beautiful and inspiring yep this is for me one of the most inspiring movie I've ever seen. I also have to say that the cinematography here is so stunning I took not less than 40 screenshots as the Hunan province is so beautiful filled with wonderful landscapes, definitely a place I would love to visit and rest for a long moment ;)
