The number one demand in the high-population megacities springing up rapidly throughout Asia is migrant workers needed in construction sites, mines, and factories. The documentary follows Swiss photographer Andreas Seibert, who focuses on this issue. Through a series of striking photographs and video images, the film presents a unique perspective on these illegal migrants, called “mingong”.
