"When Emmy Award winning American filmmaker Bill Einreinhofer stepped off the plane in Beijing more than 30 years ago, he had no idea it was the first of dozens of visits to China."
When Emmy Award winning documentary filmmaker Bill Einreinhofer arrived in China 30+ years ago, he had no idea that it was the first of many visits. Or would create dozens of nonfiction stories in and about China. China: Frame by Frame explores what he discovered, what he learned and the dramatic changes he witnessed. “Sometimes it’s difficult to put modern Chinese history into words, so I am relying on the pictures.” Those pictures include original interviews and scenes shot throughout China, as well as little seen historical footage found in perhaps the most unlikely of places: America’s National Archives and the Library of Congress.
