A Marble Travelogue brings the postmodern ironies of global supply chains and the marketing of culture into focus, tracing the journey of blocks of white marble quarried in Greece and shipped to China to be made into souvenirs, which are in turn returned to Europe to be sold to Chinese tourists. Director Sean Wang illuminates the complexities of export, manufacture, and consumerism through a series of encounters with individuals along this strange and circuitous route.
