Nanfu Wang, a Chinese-born American filmmaker based in New York City, returns to our Film Forum with her newest film. Her feature documentary I Am Another You premiered at SXSW 2017. Her feature debut Hooligan Sparrow was shortlisted for the 2017 Academy Award for best documentary feature and was honored by the International Documentary Association with the 2016 Emerging Filmmaker Award. She overcame poverty and lack of access to formal secondary education and went on to earn three master’s degrees from Shanghai University, Ohio University, and New York University in English Literature, Media Studies, and Documentary respectively.

Her film One Child Nation is a harsh, terrifying tale of control and propaganda, with women's reproductive rights front and center.
