MEDIATHEK

Filmed and produced by Michael Roes, Breakdance in China is a rare document about the life of youngsters in the Chinese city of Nanjing. It tells of their dreams and desires, shows their enthusiasm for various forms of street culture, for breakdance, graffiti and heavy metal, but also for traditional Kunju (Kun opera). In a perceptive and sensitive manner, the film conveys an impression of both the strength of subversive practices and the mechanisms of familial and social repression.
