Cinéphilia West and Magic Cube are delighted to host an event spread across four evenings, New Generation: Contemporary Independent Chinese Film. It is a showcase of some of the latest and most innovative and exciting films made by young generation Chinese filmmakers. In a series of four screenings: documentaries, animations, fictions and experimental videos, this event presents a new vision of contemporary China, under the themes of 'Absurdity and Reality', 'Lost in 'Now? - dream, memory and fantasy', 'Merging Fiction and Documentary?', and 'Searching for Identity '.

Most of the young film talents were born and grew up in post-socialist China, and they take a more personal and even first-person approach representing Chinese social reality. Among the showcased films, many are highlights from the Chongqing Independent Film and Video Festival, China. The event will be presented by Independent Filmmaker and Programmer, Tianqi Yu and the London based Magic Cube which curates and programmes contemporary Chinese independent film and video works. Promoting international collaborations and exchange between China and abroad, Magic Cube represents emerging innovative young generation film/video makers, mostly born in post-socialist China.
