Footbinding: A History is a video by Abstract, 90 minutes long. it's a very maximally produced documentary about footbinding, and about the history of china more broadly. my favourite thing about the video is how it tries to approach the topic with the assumption that chinese people aren't weird, and this practice has reasonable and explicable causes. the video talks about beauty standards for women and about attitudes towards women's autonomy that make it clear that this same thing has happened everywhere in different forms. a great way to dispel sensationalised misinformation, and a very interesting watch
