Synopsis

Fangshan, a small town in Jiangsu Province, boasts an active community of Christians. At the start of the 2000s, a church was built here with money from locals’ relatives in Taiwan. On Sundays, upwards of 900 people attend, mostly farming families. While their faith governs how they handle day-to-day affairs, they must also contend with other constraining forces within the community, from traditional folk religious practices to laws forbidding evangelism.
