Chinese New Year
Chinese Lunar New Year is coming up this Wednesday! Which, under the Chinese zodiac system, means we’re about to leave behind the Year of the Dragon and begin the Year of the Snake. In celebration, we’ve created a Spotlight whereby each film is dedicated to one of the Chinese zodiac’s twelve animals.
