Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HbIRfWXGic Wanted dead by Empress Dowager Cixi, radical political reformer Kang Youwei fled China in 1898, and ended up buying an isle outside of Stockholm where he took temporary ...residence, still dreaming of returning home one day to build his Datong -- the Chinese Utopia. Today, New York-based director Evans Chan (THE MAP OF SEX AND LOVE) recounts this lesser-known chapter in late-Qing history in this fascinating docudrama, with Liu Kai-chi playing the controversial reformer/philosopher, and Lindzay Chan his daughter, Kang Tongbi. The director has pulled a major coup luring renowned actress-choreographer Chiang Ching to narrate the film, her first in 40 years.
