Today, on Sundance Channel, I viewed one of the best documentaries that I have ever seen. It was Chinese with English subtitles, was an hour long, showing the lives of two Chinese families, and was entitled "Changing Times".

I would like to purchase a copy of this in VHS or DVD form. Does anyone know where this can be purchased?

Can you point out a reference to the program in Sundance Channel's TV listings?

I see that it apparently is sometimes called "Interesting Times". This is the same documentary program that I saw today.

Here is a description of the documentary;

This latter link indicates that I will be able to tape this documentary program Monday evening on March 27, 2006.
Thanks to Albinus

The IMDB link
http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0365949/
does not indicate any versions for sale and this link
http://www.filmakers.com/indivs/InterestingTimes.htm
suggests the price is intended for TV stations, not TV watchers.

There might be a Chinese video sales web site from which you could get it.

Your welcome,
Albinus

Thank you Albinus.
Since I will be able to own a tape of this program by taping the program myself on Monday evening, I will not have to spend the money to buy a tape, (even if a tape were available). Now I will be able to show this taping of the program to my friend coming to visit soon.

Thanks again, Albinus, for your consideration.
