Shadbolt Centre's  Black Box Film Series Presents the Poignant Mao's Last Dancer
BURNABY, BC - This is the inspirational true story of Li Cunxin, adapted from his best-selling autobiography and telling how, amidst the chaos of Mao's Cultural Revolution, he was chosen to leave his peasant family and sent on an amazing journey ... as it turned out towards freedom and personal triumph.
Here is a poignant yet triumphant story, directed by twice Academy nominated director Bruce Beresford (BREAKER MORANT, DRIVING MISS DAISY, TENDER MERCIES, BLACK ROBE etc) from a stunning adaptation by experienced screenwriter, Jan Sardi (SHINE, THE NOTEBOOK, LOVE'S BROTHER etc) that has the ability to touch both worlds.
