Speaking Up 2

Original title: 問—大陸小學

Using the same interview techniques applied in her highly successful Speaking Up (2005), Tammy Cheung turns her attention from Hong Kong to Mainland China. In Speaking Up II, she interviews around two dozen students from a well-respected primary school in Jiangxu (near Shanghai). They are asked to express their views on different topics such as personal issues, family, gender, society, and more. Presented in a skilfully edited montage and intertwined with footage of their daily lives at school, their answers highlight the changing face of today’s China.
