In 1928, Anna May Wong traveled to Berlin in pursuit of more progressive film roles, hoping to escape the stereotyped casting that had defined her career in Hollywood. During this period, she also worked in London and Paris, where critics and audiences responded to her with notable enthusiasm. When Wong returned to the United States in 1930, she did so with an expanded artistic profile and growing international acclaim.
