Semester Offered: Fall
1 unit(s)

(Same as CHIN 282) In this class, we watch Chinese-language films with themes including history, politics, wealth inequality, patriotism, family, the environment, globalization, race, and sexuality. We read articles about these films to better understand how movies reflect and shape our world, as well as how culture influences our own view of them. All the films have English subtitles.
