The Last Moose of Aoluguya will be shown with English subtitles. It is organised by the Centre for Contemporary East Asia Cultural Studies, CLAS, co-funded by the Dean's Fund, Faculty of Arts and presented in association with the Broadway Cinema Nottingham.

Country: China 
Year: 2013 
Duration: 99m 

Synopsis: The award-winning filmmaker Gu Tao has spent the last several years exploring life among the Ewenkis, an ethnic minority in north-eastern China, whose fate suddenly changed when the government in 2003 introduced a ban on hunting and forcefully displaced the group to a reservation. Since then, most Ewenkis have turned to the bottle. This is also true for the protagonist of this both heartbreaking and absurdly funny film, Weijia. We are pleased to welcome director Gu Tao to Broadway to take part in a post-screening Q&A. Tickets available at the Broadway Cinema box office or online.
