Beijing Punk
Posted on September 1st, 2010

Beijing Punk was shot during the Chinese Olympics and looks at the punk, drugs, sex and rock and roll scene in the heavily restricted China. The documentary was filmed by Shaun Jefford and is now banned across China.
- What happens when 1.3 billion Chinese discover punk? When the Olympics came to China the world spotlight turned to a country synonymous with human rights abuse and by any measure a totalitarian police state. But under the surface is a growing movement of punks and misfits, the irony of which is not lost on the filmmakers as they roam this rebellious sub culture a scratch under the surface of bustling Beijing.
Not sure when it's coming to Canada - looks interesting ...
