在密林山脉的贵州省的岜沙村苗寨木屋中，《中国最后的枪手》用一幕幕短片通过对生命的循环的探索，揭示了苗族枪手部落的性别文化，用一位欧洲女性电影人的角度阐述了不一样的观点。这部纪录片中苗族的男性代表着社会中守护者和力量支柱的角色。电影以生命的终结作为开头，解构了苗族男性生命中的五个阶段：死亡、衰老、成年、青年、和出生。在这五个阶段的代表象征分别是：树，猎枪，在男子头上的髻，和剃须仪式。影片逐步揭示了岜沙的文化传统，以及男性在村寨里和在家中所扮演的角色。
Set in the thickly forested mountains of Guizhou Province among the wooden houses of the Miao people of Basha village, The Last Chinese Warriors is an episodic short film exploring the gendering of Miao warrior culture throughout the circle of life, as seen through the outsider lens of a female European filmmaker. The film represents Miao men as caregivers and pillars of strength in their society. Beginning with the end of life, the film deconstructs the male Miao journey into five distinct phases: death, senescence, adulthood, youth, and birth. Drawing on symbols representing aspects of these five life stages, including trees, shotguns, the topknots on the men’s heads, and the shaving ceremony, the film progressively reveals Basha’s cultural traditions and male roles in the village and at home.
