The Chinese Visual Festival is a twin art festival dedicated to promoting Chinese independent documentary making partnering 13 short documentaries shown at Birkbeck and South Bank Universities with a video art and photographic exhibition entitled Lost in Transformation at 17 Dorset Square, Marylebone.

Both exhibition and film tell untold stories with unknown faces looking at the life of children, economic recession, industrial work and the Chinese love of Shakespeare. The exhibition Lost in Transformation joins the documentary films in presenting unique perspective and the images and videos talk back to the documentaries in agreeing or disagreeing voices.
