A documentary looking at an attempt to build a new church building in Yiminhe, a small town located in Ewenki Autonomous Banner, Inner Mongolia. Director Bai Xiuying is the person-in-charge of the local church, where only one of the five congregations worships in legal surroundings. As a result of the insufficient facilities, Director Bai has to rush to services in various places. She decides to build a big church that can accommodate all the congregations, and, after two years of effort, the project is approved. The documentary traces the construction during a period beset with insufficient funding. When the project is complete, the contractor refuses to hand over the church to the Christians until he is paid what he is due, and Director Bai finds herself trapped in enormous debts. Depressed but still faithful, Director Bai works hard to continue to raise money, while the congregations continue to use their original venues for gatherings.

Three small films for as many reflections on the senses and human knowledge. In the first episode, Emmer reviews with anthological and didactic intent the precepts of ancient philosophy, from Greek to Roman civilization; in the second, working as he did at the beginning of his career on a vast repertoire of pictorial and non-pictorial images, he analyzes the “history of the gaze” in the visual arts, from prehistoric graffiti to medieval altarpieces, from Impressionist and Cubist paintings to modern-day advertising posters; finally, in the third, recounting with irony and lightness a day of solitude in his mountain home, he reflects on the intellectual thinking of writers and great thinkers, relating to his own individual experience as much the words of oral tradition and popular culture as the writings of geniuses such as Shakespeare, Spinoza or Gogol.
