CGiii Comment

Not quite sure why this film was submitted...there is no LGBT content.

Other than...

...the Cultural Revolution oppressed and suppressed creativity.

This Oscar-winning film shows the effects that tyranny has on the population...the creation of bodies without souls.

Millions suffered...and many disappeared.

The(ir) Blurb...

Isaac Stern's cultural tour of China is seen, with the master violinist performing and mentoring young Chinese musicians. He visits rehearsals of the Peking Opera, meeting with their musicians who use traditional Chinese instruments, and also visits a sports academy and other venues. The lingering effects of the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), which opposed any western influences and oppressed those who introduced western approaches, are evident in the lack of skill development among many of the young musicians and the emphasis on technical skill rather than artistic interpretation.
