- Abstract
- In this winter issue, we feature three films from AEMS' Digital Asia project (www.digitalasia.illinois.edu). Kenneth Dean's Bored in Heaven, reviewed by Jonathan H.X. Lee, is a visual exploration of the performance of contemporary religious rituals in southeast China. Two films on environmental issues—in China (Lessons of the Loess Plateau by John Liu, reviewed by James E. Mills) and in Tibet (Shielding the Mountains by Emily Yeh and Kunga Lama, reviewed by Tracy H. Allen)—give hope to environmentalists everywhere by demonstrating the different ways local communities are acting to maintain the delicate balance between man and nature. The fourth film set, Can't Go Native? and supplementary DVDs by anthropologist and filmmaker David W. Plath, reviewed by Anne Prescott, looks at anthropologist Keith Brown's fifty-year relationship with the Japanese community he studied.
