Abstract

In August 2019, Barack Obama’s first production, “The American Factory,” was a huge success. The documentary tells the story of the Chinese Fuyao Glass Group, which built a factory in Dayton, Ohio, in 2014, giving a new lease on life to a failing factory. The film focuses on the cultural differences and contradictions between China and the United States, and the eventual process of bridging the gap between the two sides to profitability.
