For this club, Davie has chosen two short films...
For this club, Davie has chosen two short films that deal with interculturalism and are made by Chinese artists. One is a musician, and the other is a true groundbreaker as the first woman to have directed a full-length feature film for Pixar. One is a multiple award -winner, one is a piece that pissed off a lot of people, both are forms of honesty in the moment. Each brings about a different point of view and piece of art that will touch you in some way, and make you think._x000D_

What's it like as Eastern and Western cultures continue to mix? What's it like in marriage? In business? In leadership? How does the average Chinese person see the average Westerner and vice versa? What are the things we say out loud and the things we keep to ourselves? How is art, as a medium of communication able to speak so much more loudly, boldly and articulately than the average person?_x000D_

Let's sit back with good friends in comfy chairs as we sip on stiff cocktails, eat tasty popcorn, and watch three short films that will surprise, entertain, and touch you. And, of course, let's have a deep, intelligent and fun discussion about out mutual cinematic journey!_x000D_
