What happens

China Lunch Hour er en film instrueret af Anne Sofie Schrøder, Nynne Blak. Filmen tager os med til Maos Kina, - eller er det nu også Maos Kina? Kan vi stadig finde Maos Kina i den moderne udvikling med verdens største økonomiske vækstrater? Vi kommer lige til spisetid, så lad os smugkigge på spisende kinesere. Er de moderne tider slået igennem på maden? Er burgeren på banen eller hvad? Vi er med mange kinesere ude at spise. Måltidet og omgivelserne viser os både tradition og fornyelse. Hvor blev Mao af?
