Hong Kong Films

NPR's Mary Kay Magistad reports on "Comrades, Almost A Love Story," a film by Hong Kong director Peter Chan. As Hong Kong makes the transition to Chinese control, Chan and other filmmakers are coming to terms with new rules regarding artistic freedom. His film follows a young man and a young woman who have recently moved from China to Hong Kong and the social dislocation they face.
