BEYOND THE RED WALL: THE PERSECUTION OF FALUN GONG
Beyond the Red Wall focuses on the story of Canadian Kunlun
Zhang, an artist and professor at McGill University, who was arrested and jailed for nearly three years in a Chinese labour camp. The film reveals testimony from Zhang and never-before-seen, startling footage smuggled out of China, re-creating the kind of torture that the Falun Gong movement claims is routine in Chinese prisons.
