China pulls festival pix
The Chinese government has raised its profile on the fest circuit recently, most recently by canceling two Chinese entries in the Palm Springs Intl. Film Festival in protest over the inclusion of a film about Tibetan independence.
Chinese state-run producers were angered that “The Sun Behind the Clouds: Tibet’s Struggle for Freedom,” which deals with the Dalai Lama, was part of the desert fest’s roster.
