Ain't a Daydream of Mine
65 minutes
Director: Xinghan Liu
★ SHOWCASE SPOTLIGHT
The underground music scene in China is virtually unknown – at home and abroad. Political differences in the country limit free expression through music. Three Chinese indie musicians: singer Mengxuan, drummer Yuchu, guitarist Guandong, and their bands, give an insider’s perspective of the scene. Despite their troubles - from societal expectations to personal conflicts - they are united in their desire to express themselves through music. And, they believe their musical dream will come true in China someday.
