Film depicts Chinese students abroad
A short film created by Chinese students in New York exploring the struggles of Chinese students studying abroad premiered on July 31, 2015 at the JCC Manhattan in New York. Entitled Study Abroad 2: The Daydream Bunny, the film tells the story of a Chinese student studying printmaking in New York City, trying to earn money for her graduation exhibit to prove to her conservative mother the quality and talent embedded in her art.
Study Abroad 2 is the sequel to last December’s short film Study Abroad, which was inspired by a 2012 University of Southern California shooting event and the ensuing inaccurate media reports and negative comments about overseas Chinese students on the Internet. The first film, which was based on true stories of Chinese students pursuing their dreams overseas, got more than 3 million views online.
