Beijing Is Coming 2009

Beijing, Summer 2008. As the world rushes to China's capital, where do Beijingers go? Backdropped by the 2008 Olympics, Chic China Chic author Bono Lee's film mixes fact and fiction to explore the culture and identity of the new Beijing. An old man looks for traces of the city he left 40 years ago. A young woman decides to leave the city she grew up in. Searching for people and places of past and present, Beijing Is Coming documents the transformation of Beijing, and the changing values of China's post-80s generation.
