Spring 2018 DEAN Film Series: Conflicts in East Asian Society

-Film Screening I: Ten Years

Join DEAN for a screening of "Ten Years", a Hong Kong dystopian speculative fiction anthology film! 

This film offers a vision of Hong Kong in the year 2025, with human rights and freedoms gradually diminishing as the mainland Chinese government exerts increasing influence there. Due to the film's sensitive political themes, state television channels and major internet sites were prohibited from broadcasting the 35th Hong Kong Film Awards, where the film was nominated for and won Best Film. 

Professor Carlos Rojas, who is an expert in nationalism and diaspora studies, particularly as they relate to China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, will provide commentary, and the screening will be followed by a short discussion/Q&A. 

Ginger and Soy dumplings will be served!
