Synopsis
“Only One Earth” (只有一个地球) is a pioneering Chinese environmental documentary series presented in four parts. The project was produced by CCTV with support from state environmental authorities (then the National Environmental Protection Agency, now the Ministry of Ecology and Environment), but it did not pass censorship and was not permitted to air. (It was originally planned to premiere on the first celebrated Earth Day in China in 1990.) It approaches ecological crisis through an experimental, essayistic lens shaped by the concerns of reform-era Chinese intellectuals, confronting the toll of global industrialization. Directed by Chen Jue (a member of SWYC, the same collective behind the following year's banned Tiananmen series), Only One Earth uses literary, academic, and archival materials alongside a visual style influenced by experimental cinema.

ABC of a Strike
1990ABC of a Strike captures the 1979 metal workers strikes outside of São Paulo. The footage sat untouched until after the death of highly-regarded director Leon Hirszman in 1987, by which time the material had a new relevance. The gripping film captures the negotiations between the labor unions and the factory bosses and shows the birth of the region’s Worker’s Party, as well as the emergence of its charismatic leader, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. Rising from extreme poverty, Lula gained national prominence as a union activist during the late 70s and early 80s. After being jailed during his time as a union leader, he eventually becomes Brazil’s president from 2003 to 2010.
