Watch High Tech, Low Life Best Movies

HIGH TECH, LOW LIFE follows the journey of two of China's first citizen reporters as they travel the country - chronicling underreported news and social issues stories. Armed with laptops, cell phones, and digital cameras they develop skills as independent one-man news stations while learning to navigate China's evolving censorship regulations and avoiding the risk of political persecution. 

The film follows 57-year-old "Tiger Temple," who earns the title of China's first citizen reporter after he impulsively documents an unfolding murder and 27-year-old "Zola" who recognizes the opportunity to increase his fame and future prospects by reporting on sensitive news throughout China. From the perspective of vastly different generations, Zola and Tiger Temple must both reconcile an evolving sense of individualism, social responsibility and personal sacrifice. The juxtaposition of Zola's coming-of-age journey from produce vendor to internet celebrity, and Tiger Temple's commitment to understanding China's tumultuous past provides an alternate portrait of China and of news-gathering in the 21st century.

Review For Movie High Tech, Low Life

"High Tech, Low Life" (not a good title) has a nice easy rhythm. It feels neither hurried nor emphatic.
Mark Feeney-Boston Globe

An engaging study of the disparate characters who are drawn to speak out when the authorities crack the whip.
Sam Adams-Time Out New York

High Tech, Low Life ostensibly examines censorship of the Internet and news media in China. But the pic is driven less by its subject matter than by its two very different and utterly fascinating bloggers.
Ronnie Scheib-Variety

We leave the film with no idea how many people are doing this in China, where these two stand within the online community, and whether state media outlets have changed at all in response to them.
John DeFore-Hollywood Reporter

Whatever their orientation, both men are intrepid in pursuing the truth, the consequences of which are made clear in a series of terrifying late-film crackdowns.
Andrew Schenker-Village Voice

A narrow, albeit intriguing window into a technological revolt that deserves a more far-reaching film than this one.
Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times
