China's Child
Imagine a city the size of Liverpool where nobody has had a second child for three years; where nobody gets pregnant without official permission; where a second baby has no legal identity and can lose you your job. Changzhou, near Shanghai, is such a place; one of the most successful examples of China's policy that each couple will only be allowed a single child.
This film traces the personal detailed events in Changzhou during two weeks in March, following the factory birth control workers, the 'Granny police' and the local families as they struggle to apply - or in some cases, to get round - the 'one child policy'.
