[ecrea] Conference on Chinese Cinemas in and outside of China

A week left to our international conference on Chinese cinemas in 
and outside of China. This three-day conference brings together 
international scholars working on various aspects of Chinese cinema. The 
conference will consider the rapid development of the commercial film 
industry in China today and its subsequent impact on filmmaking in Hong 
Kong and Taiwan, and on independent production within China itself.
