Underground and Independent filmmakers in China tackle the social problems that state-sector filmmakers will not touch. Subject matter includes the AIDS epidemic, identities in flux, human trafficking, official corruption, sexuality, and the recovery of "lost" histories. Paul G. Pickowicz will screen clips from such films during his interactive lecture.
