It was incredibly sad and horrific. The images of dead babies thrown in the streets will never leave my mind. The toll this took on these families was immense but I was incredibly angry at them at the same time because they were willing to kill a girl just to have a boy.

A captivating documentary that explores how the one-child policy caused suffering for an entire generation. He highlights how a dictatorship may not consider people's well-being, but rather maintain power, using methods to control and impose its will. It's a shocking analysis that evokes memories of the dystopia of "1984."

Wang took a topic that has so many possible angles to be approached from, and managed to explore a hand-full of them while still maintaining great cohesion and a very human sense of empathy for all sides involved. It felt genuine, like a story that truly mattered to the filmmaker and was handled with the care and sensibility it deserved. It was shocking at times, and brought tears to my eyes at others. A paradigmatic example of what documentary filmmaking is all about.

Well, China is not to blame but the China Communist Party, a evil institution that threatens not only China but the whole World. In the last 10 minute the filmmaker said a very dumb thing. A baby isn't a part of the woman's body, is other body, other life, distinct DNA. Imagine finding a baby's DNA at a crime scene or on Mars. When analyzing the DNA does anyone have any doubt that it will be a DNA belonging to a human being? If a baby's DNA is found on any planet, they will say that there was life or is life on that planet.

As a personal journey, an investigative exposé, and a warning, 'One Child Nation' is an informative, affecting and important film that documents a dark chapter of Chinese history that shouldn't be forgotten.
