My aunt video-called me from Vancouver last night, her pixelated face glowing in the dark. ‘Niece,’ she sighed, ‘I saw the trailer for that new Lin Gengxin movie – Ma Teng Don’t Go. The comments say it’s hilarious, but when I clicked play… just a spinning wheel and then nothing.’
I could almost smell the bitterness in her voice – that particular blend of frustration and homesickness that settles in the throat. She’d been excited about this film since seeing Li Youbin’s weathered face in the promotional stills, remembering how his performance in Bright Sword had made her father cry years ago.
The movie itself sounds wonderfully chaotic – Lin Gengxin playing a deadbeat middle-aged man who accidentally becomes caretaker to Li Youbin’s character, a retired steelworker determined to end his life. Their ‘fool and grump’ dynamic apparently had audiences at the Golden Rooster Festival laughing through tears.
But here’s the thing that struck me: my aunt isn’t just missing a movie. She’s missing the cultural conversation, the Weibo memes about Lin Gengxin’s comedic timing, the TikTok edits of Li Youbin’s grumpy one-liners. It’s like watching a party through frosted glass – you see shapes moving, but can’t hear the music.
Remember when Song Qian’s cameo scenes started trending last week? My cousin in London spent three hours trying different VPNs just to see what everyone was laughing about. ‘It’s not about the clip,’ she texted me, ‘it’s about feeling included.’
The irony is thick enough to taste – Ma Teng Don’t Go is literally about connection across generations, about finding purpose through unlikely relationships. Yet here we are, with oceans and firewalls separating people from the stories that could resonate with them most.
So to all my overseas friends refreshing error messages: I see you. I hear that particular sigh when ‘This content is not available in your region’ pops up. How many inside jokes, shared moments, and cultural touchstones have we missed because of these digital borders?
