dGenerate Films is a non-theatrical distributor of award-winning independent films from China.[1] Their aim is to bring more images of contemporary life in mainland China to U.S. audiences.[2] The company was launched in 2008 by American independent film veterans, including producer Karin Chien.[3]
dGenerate Films has the international rights to nearly forty independent Chinese films,[4] and they distribute them abroad mostly to educational institutions and festivals, though they also are available to a general audience. Many of them are smuggled illegally out of China, where the uncensored films are considered to be counter-government.[1]
