Today, we’re sharing a conversation about the Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner One Child Nation, which opens in limited release this week. The film, directed by Nanfu Wang and Jialing Zhang, powerfully and personally explores China’s One Child Policy, which made it illegal in most circumstances for couples to have more than one child. The film screened at Human Rights Watch Film Festival, where co-director Nanfu Wang joined Yaqiu Wang, China Researcher at Human Rights Watch and Minky Worden, Director of Global Initiatives at Human Rights Watch. This podcast is brought to you by Film at Lincoln Center.
