Revolution of Our Times
Director: Kiwi Chow
Throughout Hong Kong’s history, Hongkongers have fought for freedom and
democracy but have yet to succeed. In 2019, a controversial extradition
bill was introduced that would allow Hongkongers to be tried in mainland
China. This decision spurred massive protests, riots, and resistance
against heavy-handed Chinese rule over the City-State. Award-winning
director Kiwi Chow documents the events to tell the story of the movement,
with both a macro view of its historical context and footage and
interviews from protestors on the front lines.
