The Old Barber

Uncle Jing is an old man of ninetythree who has been a barber for more than 80 years He quietly lives on his own in the old areas of Peking which he gradually sees disappearing Despite his age he daily rides his bicycle to go and meet his old clients he shaves and plays cards with while recounting the latest news and common memories Once back home he is obsessed with the old clock he owns since his birth which is always 5 minutes slow His main hope is that everyone including himself could leave this world the way he entered clean and pure He knows he may die any moment and peacefully gets ready with dignity without disturbing anyone
