Description
Join us for a film screaming of Leftover Women followed by a Q&A with directors Shosh Shlam and Hilla Medalia.
Leftover Women follows three successful Chinese women -- Qiu Hua Mei, a 34-year-old lawyer; Xu Min, 28, who works in public radio; and Gai Qi, 36, an assistant college professor in Beijing -- who, despite thriving careers, are still labeled "leftover women," or sheng nu, a derogatory term used in China to describe educated, professional women in their mid-20s and '30s who are not married.
