We are very proud to announce a screening one of the shortlisted short documentaries for the 2010 Academy Awards.

A vivid and astonishingly candid look at the human toll of last year's devastating earthquake in central China, this 40-minute verité documentary visits with the parents of deceased children from several district schools a few days after the disaster, sharing in their unimaginable grief at the loss of a child (for most, their only child).  Directed by the award-winning team of Jon Alpert and Matthew O'Neill (HBO's Baghdad ER).

Duration: 40 mins

The Frontline Restaurant is now serving Sunday Lunch. Book now for a full lunch and a ticket to the screening for £20, Members £15. To book for lunch please email Charlotte at charlotte.cook@frontlineclub.com

Such a shame not have been able to go to this - is there any chance of seeing it another time?
And will you be streaming the Q&A? Thanks, Kate
