“Finding Courage” pulls back the veil on the much overlooked, misunderstood, and under-reported Falun Gong community, whose unexpected persistence for religious freedom in China has become the sharpest thorn in the side of the world’s largest dictatorship. Falun Gong (also Falun Dafa) is a Buddhist-based spiritual discipline that includes meditation and stretching exercises, and adherence to the principles of Truth, Compassion, and Tolerance. Falun Gong was reportedly practiced by 100 million people in 1999.
About The Documentary
A former journalist for the Chinese Communist Party, living in exile in San Francisco, struggles to settle into lie in America while working to heal her family’s wounds from their tragic past. She is seeking justice for the murder of her sister at the hands of the Chinese authorities.
Rare undercover footage of a meeting with the director of the labour camp where Yifei’s sister was killed reveals shocing admissions of torture, slave labour, corruption and a general disregard for human life.
