Documentary Distribution (For institution only)

In recent years, there has been a great surge in the production of Chinese documentary films. Some of these films are remarkable works of art. They are touching, inspiring and always socially relevant. However, the chance to see these films is rare and difficult. Therefore, Visible Record, as an organization promoting documentary films, is to build a DVD distribution network of the latest and finest Chinese documentary films.

The first series includes 36 films from China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. They cover a wide range of subject matters, such as, contemporary Chinese history, education, legal system, medical, environmental protection, politics, human rights, gender, poverty and culture.

These DVDs are mainly for institutions. In purchasing these films, institution will receive an “Educational License” which allows the institution to use them for teaching and research purposes.

Chinese Documentary Festival 2009 click to enter

A documentary is a unique art form combining film art and society. The reality in a documentary could be more dramatic and thrilling than in a drama. It is also more revealing and in greater depth than a news report.

This year’s Chinese Documentary Festival presents over a dozen of the finest documentary films made recently in Hong Kong, China and Taiwan. The subject matter of these films is wide-ranging. They include: education issues facing both China and Taiwan, the perils of Chinese migrant workers, the lives of peasants and under-privileged classes, the struggles workers make when their factory is closed, Hong Kong’s political system and the pain of growing up.
