Participants will screen the movie on their own\, using the resource as a guide. \nThe virtual discussion will include language practice and answering questions. If you don’t have the chance to watch the movie beforehand\, be aware of spoiler alerts\, but join us anyway for Mandarin Chinese language practice and discussion around Chinese New Year and family. \nView Trailer \nFilm Available on: \nAmazon Prime \nVudu \nYoutube \nGoogle Play \n\n \n \n \n \n Twitter\n \n \n \n Facebook\n \n \n \n LinkedIn\n \n \n \n Like URL:https://www.ciuscenter.org/event/film-fridays-celebrating-chinese-new-year/ LOCATION:Virtual CATEGORIES:Special Events END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
