Chinese films withdraw from Melbourne festival over Kadeer

Well, this was unexpected. While we knew Melbourne wouldn't do much about China's demands to stop the Rebiya Kadeer movie, "10 Conditions of Love," from airing at their International Film Festival program, three Chinese films were withdrawn in protest. Jia Zhangke's short film "Cry Me a River," Zhao Liang's "Petition" and Emily Tang's "Perfect Life" were pulled as an objection to Kadeer's presence at the festival and the inclusion of her movie in the program. Festival organizer Richard Moore said the festival was "disappointed that this action has been taken." Source: Hollywood Reporter
