3 Layers of Work

In a heartwarming documentary, we delve into the lives of assembly line workers, skilled ceramists, and dedicated excavator drivers who share their passion and devotion to their craft: creating exquisite cups. Throughout the span of a year, this film immerses us in the world of rural laborers who have faithfully pursued their trades for generations, in environments that have withstood the test of time, much like the timeless cups they produce. However, these traditional workplaces are gradually fading into history, as the only bastion of progress lies within the porcelain factory, home to the assembly line workers. In this haven of innovation, the march of modernization unfolds, and robots are slowly taking over the tasks once performed by humans. Immaculate white cups glide smoothly down the assembly line, a testament to the intersection of tradition and automation, painting a vivid picture of an evolving industry.
