Overview
This thought-provoking documentary explores how the Chinese government limits freedom in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Through extraordinary cases from the arrest of Beijing-based artist HUA Yong and the disappearances of five booksellers in Hong Kong’s Causeway Bay to controversial scandals involving celebrities CHOU Tzu-yu and Leon DAI, director Kevin H.J. LEE and Lulu LU argue that even ordinary Taiwanese citizens may not be as politically and economically free from Beijing’s influence as they like to believe.
