Even communist prapaganda films pirated in China

Posted by Emil A. Georgiev on 2 October, 2009

Yes, it may sound a bit strange and it definetly is – not even propaganda films are safe from being unlawfully reproduced in the reign of the dragon.

As Associated Press reports , police in China are hunting down illegal copies of two new propaganda films made in honor of the nation’s 60th anniversary. These are the historical epic “The Founding of a Republic” and the World War II-era drama “The Message” that are currently being sold as fakes.

 

Is this going to be the last straw to break the chinese law enforcement camel’s back? We will see.
