Conquering China

Nov 7 2014 Not Rated 1h 10m
Documentary, Music

A Swedish singer trades Europe for China. Like a blonde nephew of Bryan Ferry, he enters the burgeoning music scene in Shanghai, where electronic dance music dominates. But is this new land of opportunity ready for his soul-searching, tormented voice? Is music really such a universal language?

Plot

Shanghai. Clubs. Music. Swedish pop singer Johan Jonason finds himself challenged as he gets nothing but the silent treatment from the Chinese star producers he set out to collaborate with. An altogether humiliating experience. Jonason is forced to evaluate his methods and motifs.
