Finding Kukan

Finding Kukan explores the remarkable journey of filmmaker Robin Lung as she investigates the life of Li Ling-Ai, the uncredited producer of the Academy Award-winning documentary KUKAN. This documentary not only sheds light on a forgotten figure in film history but also examines the significance of the original KUKAN, a color documentary about World War II China that has been lost for decades.

With a runtime of 75 minutes, the film features notable appearances by actors Daniel Dae Kim and Kelly Hu. Collectors interested in documentaries and historical narratives will find value in this exploration of women’s contributions to filmmaking and the recovery of lost cinematic works. Finding Kukan serves as a testament to the importance of preserving film history and acknowledging those who played crucial roles behind the scenes.
