Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry is the inside story of a dissident for the digital age, who inspires global audiences and blurs the boundaries of art and politics. First-time director Alison Klayman gained unprecedented access to Ai while working as a journalist in China. Her detailed portrait provides a nuanced exploration of contemporary China and one of its most compelling public figures. It follows Ai after his release from detention in 2011 to his installations at the Haus der Kunst and Tate Modern.
