The Africa-China Reporting Project will host this film screening.

Immigration, globalisation, Chinese factories and African dreams. Guangzhou Dream Factory is a documentary film that weaves stories of Africans chasing alluring, yet elusive, “Made in China” dreams into a compelling critique of 21st Century global capitalism. Featuring a cast of men and women from Cameroon, Kenya, Nigeria and Uganda, Guangzhou Dream Factory provides a rare glimpse of African aspirations in an age of endless outsourcing. A question and answer will follow after the film screening.
