FINDING KUKAN: Meet the Filmmaker

Clips & Conversation with Director

Robin Lung

 

A relentless search for a Chinese American heroine led filmmaker Robin Lung to track down a lost Oscar-winning film on China entitled KUKAN.  She also discovered a compelling story about the Chinese American woman behind the making of the film -- Li Ling-Ai.  Finding KUKAN is about Lung’s quest to restore KUKAN and the story of its makers to their rightful place in history.  Join us as Lung reveals more about this fascinating story and its Georgia connections.
