Exiled Hong Kong Filmmakers Mark Controversial Anniversary With ‘Tiananmen’ Movie Project Set Amid the June 4 Political Upheaval
A group of anonymous and overseas-based Hong Kong filmmakers aim to mark the controversial June 4 anniversary with their ‘Tiananmen’ movie project.
“The story is told through the eyes of a 20-something British DJ who lands in Hong Kong hoping to break into the film industry as an actor, but who soon learns that the only work open to him is dubbing English dialog for local kung fu movies. The U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Chair Ben Cardin said Tuesday in a Fox News op-ed: “Compounding this tragedy is the fact that today, most people under the age of 40 in 21st-century China have little to no understanding of the events that unfolded on June 4, 1989. The alleged offence took place “on a social platform anonymously with the assistance of at least seven arrested persons since April 2024, with content provoking hatred towards the Central Authorities and the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Judiciary, as well as inciting netizens to organize or participate in relevant illegal activities at a later stage.”
