Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Stefan Byfield A brave doc made for a rose tinted world indifferent to the Human Rights crimes of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Crimes starkly portrayed in this heart-rending film about two people, Jennifer Zeng and Charles Lee, with the courage to believe in their persecuted faith. Award winning director Michael Perlman draws on these first hand experiences and with expert analysis paints a nation on the brink of social Armageddon. CCP mouthpiece, Chinese Central Television (CCTV), broadcasts how "Ideological Re-education" will "transform" those who support, follow or promote Falun Gong and its tenets of Truth, Compassion and Tolerance. Anyone exposing atrocities used to accelerate this transformation are branded "Enemy of the State" and charged with "divulging State secrets". Incarcerated and tortured, Jennifer Zeng is now "Enemy of the State". However, American citizen Charles Lee has a daring plan - to return to China, hack into CCTV's network and broadcast these crimes to the people… Brave indeed!

diana-chen10 The Courage to Believe:Falun Gong's Cultic and Political Agitprop! How Falun Gong looks at arts? The founder of Falun Gong-Li Hongzhi says that arts are degenerating into a tool for the venting of demon nature."Since mankind's values are still sliding down, at present, the arts are now becoming real and concrete displays of mankind's demon nature. The arts are becoming a blasphemy of the sacred arts, they have completely become a tool for the venting of demon nature, and what they portray are demons, ghosts, and monsters." (Teaching the Fa at the Discussion on Creating Fine Art) Li Hongzhi also claims that modern arts damage people's moral values so they are "all harmful garbage." "They hang up a so-called modernistic piece and show it to people…In reality those things are all garbage that's harmful to people." (Teaching the Fa at the Discussion on Creating Fine Art)

gairui2013 When i was watching the movie,i was very angry.It is full of lies and twist the fact.We recognize that China's legal system is not perfect,But we always been working hard.Treatment of Falun Gong, our policy is focus on education.I have had conversations with some of the staff,they said they talked with the Falun Gong practitioners every day.They told the reason of why Falun Gong is not a religion .Let them wrote down their experiences，in order to grasp their mental condition.Everyone is absolutely jailed for humanitarian protectionist，Absolutely no violence， no "huozhai".Falun Gong is a cult in the world 。If only one religion，"Tian an" Square self-immolation incident and many Falun Gong practitioners Suicides are not occur.Cherish life, away from the cult

xiaow007 Highly recommend to everyone if you are living in the world, since the recorded stories of this documentary happened in China are closely related with our lives. a fresh angle to see today's China.... The fates of a woman living in Beijing and a man living in New York become inextricably linked because of a common conviction. A mother and model citizen, Jennifer Zeng was imprisoned for her faith. As she endures physical and mental torture, she has to decide: does she stand her ground and languish in jail, or does she recant her belief so she can tell her story to the world? A world away, Charles Lee, a Chinese American businessman, wanted to do his part to stop the persecution in China. However, as soon as he stepped off an airplane in Guangzhou, he was whisked away by the Chinese police and sentenced to three years of re-education in a prison camp.you may check http://freechina.ntdtv.org for more info.
