Free Screening: Follow Your Heart: China's New Youth Movement

Time: 4:00PM, Run time: 91 min.  
Language: English, French and Cantonese w/ English subtitles  

FOLLOW YOUR HEART is Duncan Jepson’s first venture in filmmaking. By day, Jepson is a corporate lawyer in Hong Kong. His daring documentary explores the life and ideals of a new generation of Chinese, focusing on the beliefs, work and family of a number of China's successful independent Hip Hop artists. The group, spread across China, believe in Old School values: self-expression, freedom and truth to one-self. The film investigates the dynamic between the inflexible political environment and a modernizing ancient culture, the issues that are affecting Chinese youth such as Chinese-ness, geography, freedom, family, information, consumerism, wealth and individuality. Finally the film sets out to describe the high optimism of this new generation and the future that they want to build.

This FREE screening is sponsored by Burkett & Wong
