Description

Join Chicago's premiere showing for the award winning documentary "Revolution Of Our Times" on December 10th at the Davis Theatre. ”Revolution of Our Times” - An award winning and controversial documentary filmed during the Hong Kong demonstration in 2019 from the protesters’ point of view. Hong Kong has always been at the frontline of fighting for freedom and democracy. The “Extradition Bill” has turned it into a battlefield under the Chinese authoritarian rule. The government's unreasonable use of violence against the protesters sparked the peaceful protests as well as civil disobedience across Hong Kong. Thousands of tear gases and countless rubber bullets were used against protesters. This documentary can not be shown in Hong Kong because of government's censorship. Seize your chance to watch it for the first time ever in Chicago!
