Gold Mountain (background)
This is an adaptation of C. Pam Zhang’s novel "How Much of These Hills Is Gold". Set in the waning days of the 19th-century American Gold Rush, it follows two newly orphaned Chinese-American siblings, LUCY and SAM, navigating a brutal, unforgiving, and racist Western frontier while attempting to bury their father.
