    • Synopsis
    • Most ended up in Vienna by chance, working in a Chinese restaurant. Dreaming
      of their own place, or needing to pay for family to come. It was a life of endless work.
      When they could finally relax a bit, they had time for questions about life.
      China Reverse puts everything in question, without asking. Life could have been very different, not in Europe, but China. Those who stayed took advantage of the economic boom. For some, there´s still time to jump on the band wagon.
      China Reverse looks behind the facade of financial success. Noticing casual
      details- an antique porcelain dish, native songs, and a smile that refers to
      the future, but cannot help trembling.
