Things I've Never Done in Wuhan Before with a Sex Shop Comedy

The "Red Light Revolution" 《红灯梦》 movie train hit the city of Wuhan recently, which is a bustling metropolis about two hours flight from Beijing. It was a new experience for me so I thought I'd write a list of things I'd never done before but did in my 48 hours in Wuhan. Things I've Never Done in Wuhan Before with a Sex Shop Comedy:

Going into a Chinese sex museum.

Going into a Chinese sex museum to showcase my own work. (never saw that one on the "to-do" list growing up)

Having people not attend the sex museum screening because they said they were too shy to enter the sex museum (but would you please tell me the address of the next screening).

Discovering that the people who attend sex museum screenings are very academic. (It was one of the most intellectual Q&A's we've had for the film so far). It was interesting to see that none of the "trench-coat crowd" attended. If anyone knows where the trench-coat crowd watches their movies in Wuhan, please let me know, but it's not the sex museum.

Having a sex museum provide me and the film's team with free accommodation and breakfasts (in the hotel owned by the sex museum).

Finding out that sex museum breakfasts are the same as regular breakfasts.

Having receptionists at the hotel leave their posts to sneak into the screening mid-way through.

Screening the movie at someone's 12th floor 80 square metre apartment, an apartment that has been transformed into an indie film club with a hefty mailing list. If you didn't know where this club was, you'd never find it, it's totally off the radar.

Playing to the Wuhan university crowd in the university district -- and finding out that some of the Beijing slang used in the film isn't used down in Wuhan.

Hitting up Vox, an indie music venue, and packing it out.

All in all an eye-opening 48 hours in Wuhan! Cheers to Waiting in Wuhan for organizing it!

Finally 《红灯梦》 gets it's own clapper board announcement!
