Bamboo Shoots (2010)

Directed by Jian Yi1h 44m

The film follows Yang (Wang Jianbao), a 50-year-old peasant who’s sent on a quest to the city to retrieve a condom that his family, thinking it was a preservative (they don’t get out much), put into a box of bamboo destined to be donated to township officials. Yang sets off to find the pesky prophylactic and save his family’s face, meeting an eccentric collection of equally disenfranchised locals along the way.
