Eyes to the East

Eyes to the East tells of the enjoyable yet naive life that expat teachers experience within a Chinese city, and the bonds that exist between them and the local community.

When Charlie, a recent UK university graduatearrives, he is excited to experience a new world, but unprepared for the casual racism, sexism and inequality the country's propaganda denies.

Nor is he impressed by some of the expats. In his new and more seasoned flatmate, Kevin, Charlie discovers himself and becomes worried by what he sees.

No matter how many opportunities some people are given to start afresh, it doesn't mean they'll change for the better.
