F*CK THE CENSORSHIP

Popo Fan, OV with English subs
Followed by a talk with Sun Mo

一次网络视频管理 BLOCK AND CENSOR
Chen Awei, China 2018, Documentary 65 min.

The film is based on the lawsuit of the queer filmmaker Popo Fan against the SARFT (State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film, Television of the PRC) after his film Mama Rainbow was deleted on Chinese video websites. Interviews with Popo’s lawyer, journalists, NGOs, activists and commentators reveal China’s systemic use of censorship through endless laws and regulations.

波动 THE HUTONG VIBE
Popo Fan, China 2017, Experimental fiction 18 min.

The Hutong Vibe is the first feminist queer pornography film made in Mainland China. Two women meet in a Hutong B&B in Beijing. One of them presents herself as unfriendly and bashful while the other is bold and flirty. What will happen when they become more and more involved?

Sun Mo is the Producer of Block and Censor. Born in China, now based in Berlin. Wandering in the art field, dabbling in photography and film production; struggling with his queer friends personally and publically, legally or illegally; surviving in a world that is so imbalanced, from the East to the West, to fuck or being fucked. So, just trying to be alive, as a human.
