"No.36, Fanzikeng, Pingxi District" is a documentary film that delves into the lives of elderly individuals living alone in rural areas. Located in the Pingxi District of New Taipei City, the primary shooting location is at No. 36, Fanzikeng, a century-old stone house nestled amidst serene forests. Accessible only via a single road, this remote abode serves as the solitary dwelling of Mr. Yang, a septuagenarian. Despite the fields lying fallow for years, Mr. Yang sustains a simple agrarian lifestyle by cultivating vegetables and tea, reflecting his deep-rooted connection with the land and finding intrinsic value in it rather than mere productivity. However, with no successors willing to inherit the tea business or return to live here, signs of aging are evident both in the house and its occupant. Yet, Mr. Yang perseveres, patching up the cracks in the walls and the leaky roof, unwilling to let the decay take over. This house has been Mr. Yang's lifelong companion, witnessing his journey from birth, childhood, adulthood, parenthood, and into old age. Despite having a residence in the city where he could live, he is reluctant to part ways because No. 36, Fanzikeng, is not just a house or a number; it embodies his emotional homeland.
