Synopsis:

With their nonfiction film Beijing Bubbles: Punk and Rock in China's Capital, a pair of neophyte directors - pop music journalist Susanne Messner and two-time documentarist George Lindt - filter a casual inside examination of the Chinese sociocultural landscape through the perspectives of five indigenous Chinese rock acts. The subjects at hand (who represent a bevy of subgenres within rock) espouse varying feelings about the limitations of life in contemporary Communist China, from cockeyed optimism to ambivalence to blazing discontent.
