Blind Mountain (Chinese: 盲山; pinyin: Máng shān) is a 2007 Chinese film directed by Li Yang. (It is Li's first feature film since his 2003 debut Blind Shaft.) It is also known as Road Home.[2]

Like Li's previous film, Blind Shaft, which dealt with the notoriously dangerous mining industry, Blind Mountain turns a sharply critical eye towards the issue of women being sold for marriage in China.
