Free China: The Courage To Believe is a riveting documentary highlighting governmental reforms that are required if 1.3 billion Chinese are to have their freedom of speech and belief restored.

Jennifer Zeng, who escaped to Sydney and applied for political asylum, details her ordeal – arrested, sent to detention centres and tortured for following Falun Gong, a spiritual movement which the Communist party saw as a threat.

Labour camps overflowing with these practitioners receive “thought education” (brainwashing) to restore their faith in Communism and many are murdered for organ harvesting.

150,000 protests are held each year as Chinese justifiably demand change.

This thought-provoking documentary is well-researched and insightful. Nauseating descriptions of torture and frightening footage of the barbaric treatment of demonstrators, effectively highlights the harsh realities of life in Communist China.

The narrative by Jennifer Zeng is heartfelt and detailed atrocities from interviews incite anger and the need to spread awareness.
Compelling and disturbing Free China: The Courage To Believe is mandatory viewing, dedicated to activists who have the courage to believe. (MM)
