I enjoyed this documentary and the insight it gives us into Chinese culture in the shape of two young adults.
The film follows two 16-year-olds in Beijing and Qinghai Huangnan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, China. After graduating from high school, they chose two completely different paths in entirely different cultures. One goes to study abroad, and the other inherits the traditional art of his culture - ThangGa.
Beautifully produced documentary following two young boys who take very different paths after high school, both are very interesting and the film shows how they pursue their individual goals. Great camera work, good audio, excellent editing. I thoroughly enjoyed this and the glimpse it gives us into Chinese culture. The dialogue is in Mandarin Chinese with English subtitles; the subtitles are somewhat small and not always completely in proper English, but you still understand the drift of the film. The film's message is about how two people can pursue completely different paths to find their own personal version of happiness. I give Two Ways 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
