C/LENS is a Berlin-based, non-profit film curation project that explores the potential of cinema as a space for transcultural dialogues, through the showcase of rarely exhibited Chinese independent films.The curated film series mainly focus on socio-political issues regarding woman, migration and urbanization represented in Chinese filmmakers’ works. By introducing the less-known yet vibrant Chinese indie cinema to the European audience, we want to unfold the complex realities of contemporary China with insider perspectives, stimulating new reflections through challenging a eurocentric view.
