Film by Lu Xi 卢西 and Eddie Mattola
Dog ownership has become commonplace in Beijing, but not all dogs have someone to care for them. We meet Shen Jianhua who, with her daughter, has been rescuing strays for ten years.
It was produced as part of a unique collaboration between USC’s School for Cinematic Arts and the Communication University of China’s School of Theater, Film and Television. The program began in 2006 and alternates between Los Angeles and Beijing. Students pair up with a partner from the other school and have just a few weeks to produce their short documentaries.
