This is an elaboration on my previous question regarding depictions of single party communist political systems but I am particularly interested in China and how things work in their seat of power.

Looking for a show like House of Cards but Chinese with english subtitles and I don’t care if its CCP propoganda stuff or if its filmed in the Koreas depicting a fairly realistic informed u derstanding of party politics, show trials, etc.

      TraumaZone isn’t really a show - it’s a collection of news coverage from the fall of the Soviet Union. It’s pretty intense. But it’s not a show like House of Cards

        Yeah, but archival footage is cool too. No issue with pastiche and found footage or whatever
