- Abstract
- This issue of AEMS News and Reviews (Vol. 4, No. 3, Spring 2001) features in-depth reviews of films and media that explore pressing social, cultural, and political issues across Asia. Films include "Treasure the Treasures Series", which introduces Chinese artistic heritage to students; "The Heroin Wars Trilogy" and "Smuggling", both tackling the complex dynamics of the drug trade in Southeast Asia; and "Nu Shu: A Hidden Language of Women in China", which uncovers a secret writing system used by Chinese women. Other titles include "Gaea Girls", an intimate look into the world of Japanese women’s professional wrestling; "Maharajah Burger", which examines cultural globalization and fast food in India; and "Fishing in the Sea of Greed", addressing overfishing and environmental exploitation. Collectively, the reviews provide educators with rich content to spark discussions on gender, identity, globalization, crime, and tradition throughout Asia.
