常开歌是一个80后青年农民，人称“开哥”。见多识广的他立志要在家乡做一番大事业，无奈时运不济，干啥啥不成、烧香佛转腚。一筹莫展之际，前女友谷小燕衣锦还乡，令开哥自惭形秽。小姨子顾芸结婚，开哥去岳母家送亲途中遇到追债人，慌不择路的他误入顾芸的婚纱之内，丢尽颜面。谷小燕的爹谷八抬担任婚庆司仪，却因找不到电动车钥匙而错过了时辰，婆家人无奈之下邀请能说会道的开哥前去救场。因为紧张，开哥误将“二拜高堂”说成了“二拜灵堂”，惹怒婆家人。相同，他的救场行为也被谷八抬误认为是故意抢生意。为防止开哥与谷小燕接触，妻子顾芗逼开哥在她经营的浴池里当搓澡工。开哥身在曹营心在汉，梦想着有机会再主持一场婚礼为本人挽回名誉。

青年农民常开哥临危受命，去村民家主持婚礼庆典，却由于紧张出现了严重的口误，被村民们耻笑。从此，他决定在红白喜事司仪这一行干出一番名堂，挽回名誉。在创业的道路上，他历经坎坷，不仅要面对来自家庭的压力，还要随时迎接竞争对手的挑战和打击。妻子提出离婚、父亲和岳母想要再婚、兄弟与他反目、竞争对手不断给他制造麻烦，这一切把他搞得焦头烂额。最终，他凭借自己的坚韧精神和聪明才智为自己打拼了一片天地，同时，化解了自己的家庭危机、感化了竞争对手，赢得了真爱。在主持红白喜事的过程中，他主张破旧俗，立新风，解决了人与人之间的矛盾，改变了少数农民的落后观念，使得邻里之间、家庭内部及村民身心进一步和谐、幸福。

The film sees Dutch artist Renzo Martens travel through the Congo armed with a camera and an enormous neon sign that reads, in English, ‘Enjoy Poverty (please)’, which he erects at various intervals amid desperately poor Congolese villagers. 　　There’s something incredibly uncomfortable about watching someone with his own agenda filming the tragedy of poverty stricken Africa. He befriends the villagers and interviews them about the difficulty of their situation, their malnourished children and the fact that they barely make enough to get by. 　　They put their trust in him, but his own agenda (to put up his signs in their villages) is entirely foreign to them. Even as he explains to them that their situation is unlikely to change, the bewilderment on their faces is clear. He’s here, what can they do? To the audience it verges on a kind of exploitation. 　　Until you realize what’s really going on. 　　http://viewoncanadianart.com/2009/05/07/loved-renzo-martens-enjoy-poverty/

French Filmmaker Philippe Diaz, in an illuminating documentary [The End to Poverty?] traces globalisation back 500 years to the Spanish and Portuguese conquests of the Americas. Diaz shows how the colonial North used the South's resources to build its industrial base and how its continued control over resources, global trade and debt rules prevents developing countries from ending poverty. The title is a play on a book by economist Jeffrey Sachs - without the question mark - who, Diaz told IPS, "runs all around the world with Bono and these guys claiming that if we bring mosquito nets and fertilisers, it will end poverty..." Aside from seeing solutions in agrarian reform, tax system changes, and an end to natural resources monopolies, Diaz calls for de-growth. That's not just eating or driving less, bu t creating another way of living to avoid what he predicts as the coming resource war when the poor rise up against their repression. 　　IPS - November 14
