Who's Afraid of Ai Weiwei? captures the artist immediately before his principled and costly stand against the Beijing Olympics and the oppressive police state he claimed it represented.
Freelance journalist and documentary maker Alison Klayman began filming China’s most famous international artist, Ai Weiwei, in 2008. From the two-hundred hours of footage Alison shot, some became the short film Who’s Afraid of Ai Weiwei?, and the rest was edited and released as the feature-length film, Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry.
