Directed by Mijie Li, Confucian Dream is a new documentary about a young Chinese mother named Chaoyan, and her truggle to bring ancient teachings of Confucianism into her modern family.

Having transitioned from countryside dweller to her new city based role as wife and mother with a steady job, Chaoyan is determined to rid her life of the emptiness she finds at home with her family…

I’m curious about confucianism’s focus on the importance of the family, social harmony, and the reasons Chaoyan’s family give for not wanting it in their lives.

Confucian Dream Release Dates…

Happy film Loving
