MOCA will screen the award-winning feature-length documentary The Gate of Heavenly Peace. The film chronicles the turbulent weeks of the 1989 protests, offering portraits of both the Chinese government and activists in Tiananmen Square. The binary opposition between Communists and anti-Communists has left little middle ground left for the rational and thoughtful proponents of positive reform in China. The Gate of Heavenly Peace crafts a nuanced history of one of the most watched yet least understood stories of our time.

Carma Hinton, the film’s director and a leading scholar on contemporary China, will introduce the film and participate in a Q&A session. Together with Richard Gordon, Hinton has directed thirteen documentary films about China. She received a Ph.D. in Art History from Harvard University… More

There will be a reading of the script followed by a new talk back format!  

In production with Elmhurst Entertainment, when two selfish parents can’t get over their failed marriage, their son attempts to form a family of his own, until the family’s perpetual state of disconnect comes full circle.  Silly of Me represents the hardships that prevent deep love from ascending.  At the centerpiece is a union rarely visited in cinema, a marriage between an Asian male and black female.  Although race relations has its place firmly cemented within the journey of the characters, the story showcases the importance of a strong family unit; one that all races, nationalities and cultures value.
