Wen-jie Qin

The director, Wen-jie Qin, graduated from Beijing University in 1989 with a B.A. in philosophy and is currently a Ph.D. candidate in Religion and Film at Harvard University. She has completed the following three films in the last two years. Being on the one hand Chinese but having been a long term resident and scholar in the USA put her in a unique position when she returned to China in 1995. She saw changes happening on many levels in the society and within the people and has chosen to document her perceptions in film. She manages to combine the intimacy that only a native Chinese person could have with the sense of discovery and exploration of a visitor and scholar. D.E.R. is pleased to be introducing the films of Wen-jie Qin.
