freeOK概要：In the late 1930s, China fell into a predicament. Without external assistance, this country will collapse under Japan's military rule. Chinese American agitator Li Lingai used a new medium -16mm Kodak color film to inspire Americans to take action. She hired photojournalist Ray Scott to travel to China to capture citizens' views on this war-torn country, including the large-scale bombing of the wartime capital Chongqing (now Chongqing). Their iconic film "Kukan" was screened at the White House for President Roosevelt, praised as "fantastic" by The New York Times, and won one of the first Academy Awards in 1942 for a feature length documentary. Why have we never heard of Li Lingai? Why have all copies of KUKAN disappeared? Film producer Robin Lung spent 7 years searching for answers.
