2008年,当艾莉森·克莱曼完全出于偶然闯入了艾未未闹腾的生活时,她只有24岁,对中国几乎一无所知。艾未未由中国最直言不讳的艺术家转型成为活动家。
这位美国记者来自费城一个保守的犹太家庭,在随后三年的大部分时间里,她带着摄像机追随艾未未,捕捉他与那个被抨击为腐败、残暴的一党专政国家之间的斗争。
成果是2011年3月在美国公共电视网《前沿》系列中播出的片段,以及之后出世的长篇纪录片《艾未未:道歉你妹》,片中完整地记录下了艾未未与政府不断升级的斗争。
这部纪录片一月份在犹他州的圣丹斯电影节上首度公开,在那里它以其"反抗精神"获得了"评委会特别奖"。《道歉你妹》周五在美国剧院进行了首映。
艾未未似乎对次成果很满意,其满意程度足以让他在最近一个上午安排了一次私人放映,地点在他北京郊区工作室的厨房里,观众是几位曾在街上散步的推特粉丝。
艾未未说:"艾莉森拍的电影并不是艺术电影。它不为宣传任何东西。它只是展现出了发生过的某事的真相。作为一部电影,它平淡而直接。由于是纪录片,没法更吸引眼球。也不能这么做,因为拍的都是事实。平凡的真相就是那样的。"
艾未未说,《道歉你妹》不大可能在中国公映。他又强调了一句,"永不可能"。
说起这次即兴的厨房观影,克莱曼女士似乎很满意,甚至松了一口气。现年27岁的克莱曼女士在布鲁克林一家中国人经营的茶室通过Skype说:"我的电影不是拍来让他高兴的,但如果艾未未想把它展示给其他人,这是一个好的征兆。"

One red princeling Hu Shiying posted a photo of a private gathering of China's red princelings, in which a infamous red guard Song Yaowu appeared.
The party was hosted by Xi Jinping, then CCP Party Boss in Zhejiang Province. Others appeared in this photo includes Bo Xicheng (son of Bo Yibo and brother of Bo Xilai), Liu Yuan (son of Liu Shaoqi), Wang Qishan (son in law of Yao Yilin), Yang Li (daughter of Yang Shangkun), Chen Yuan (son of Chen Yun) among others. Song Yaowu is the women 4th from left in the front. Xi Jinping is 3rd from right in the second row.
Song, together with another Red Guard Deng Rong (daughter of Deng Xiaoping), killed their teacher Bian Zhongyun, the first teacher to be killed by students in the Great Cultural Revolution. The incident opened an era when red guards across the country were mobilized to take over schools by violence. Many more teachers would be tortured and killed in the next few years.
One of those from whom Hu Jie got evidence was another teacher at the school, Lin Mang.In the film Lin states that the Red Guards beat Bian Zhongyun in a toilet room. He described one of the perpetrators as a tall, thin girl. Lin also stated in the film that Red Guards forced him to carry Bian's body after her murder.
Based upon subsequent additional credible evidence received,the tall, thin girl who Lin saw beating Bian was Liu Tingting, daughter of Liu Shaoqi, the president of China.
