China’s first sex shop comedy, Red Light Revolution, recently participated in a slew of film fest globally and nabbed several awards. Now the controversial and hilarious film is available to all of China, albeit sans English subtitling. Consider it good Chinese practice.

It premiered on Tudou last week and received good feedback from Chinese netizens. Most think it was “humorous and unique.” One Weibo user named “fengli” commented, “the story is interesting and true to life.” Another Weibo user “ denny” raised a question: “Since it’s available on major cinemas in England, why is it only available on Tudou in China? Because of the cultural difference?” Hey, we don't know why film companies do this to us either.

For those who didn’t catch local screenings back in March, check it out below:
