11th Reel China Biennial at NYU

11th Reel China Biennial at NYU
Nov. 1-3, 2024

This edition of Reel China once more brings back to NYC innovative and bold works by veteran filmmakers in the PRC along with diaspora and emerging Sinophone voices. In this year’s edition, an acclaimed female first-person-plural documentary reflects on generation gaps and transnational kinship against the backdrop of modern China’s history. Among other selections, experimental animations show the processing of the Pandemic experience. The short and long films, fiction and non-fiction in various forms, bear sharp and delicate witness to the momentous changes in China and the world in the 21^st century.
