home . about the film
Ai Weiwei is China's most famous international artist, and its most
outspoken domestic critic. Against a backdrop of strict censorship and
an unresponsive legal system, Ai expresses himself and organizes people
through art and social media. In response, Chinese authorities have shut
down his blog, beat him up, bulldozed his newly built studio, and held
him in secret detention.
AI WEIWEI: NEVER SORRY is the inside
story of a dissident for the digital age who inspires global audiences
and blurs the boundaries of art and politics. First-time director
Alison Klayman gained unprecedented access to Ai while working as a
journalist in China. Her detailed portrait provides a nuanced
exploration of contemporary China and one of its most compelling public
figures.
