'My Beijing Birthday,' now in Beijing

Last week I mentioned how much I enjoyed and admired the documentary film My Beijing Birthday, which was having a special showing in Hong Kong.

This week it's having another screening in Beijing -- tomorrow night, Tuesday, October 28. Details below.

The trailer for the film, here, which I didn't mention before, will give you an idea of the approach and tone, including the before-and-after of kids who were playful tots in 1996 and have changed in heartening and heartrending ways since. I can't recommend this highly enough.

EVENT DETAILS:

Date:       Tuesday 28th October 2008

Time:       18:00 Registration

                18:30 Screening 

Venue: Saatchi & Saatchi
