Synopsis

The documentary is about a child rape case in China (involving a government official) and the protests against it by activists Ye Haiyan, Shan Lihua, Tang Jitian, Wang Jianfen, Jia Lingmin, Wang Yu, and Huang. It is composed of footage captured surreptitiously, and smuggled out of the country, by Nanfu Wang.[4]

gollark: Perhaps. But I mostly encounter... *inkjets*.
gollark: The majority of printers I've encountered have been *pure evil*.
gollark: I don't trust printers.
gollark: I'm at least decently confident it would be *quite hard* for unauthorized people to get access. And paper isn't easily backupable or searchable, doesn't support embedding images and videos, doesn't have good linking support, and can be lost easily.
gollark: Might be fun, actually.
