About the film
Peabody Award-winning filmmaker Raymond Zhang follows the story of two families in China embarking on a perilous twenty-year journey searching for their missing family members. Along the way, they uncover a harrowing government-run organ harvesting operation that is destroying the lives of thousands of innocent victims and still occurring to this day.
The powerful documentary explores how the rise of the Falun Gong movement caused deep jealousy in Chinese Communist Party leader Jiang Zemin, and how that jealousy resulted in Falun Gong practitioners being directly targeted and subjected to forced organ harvesting.
With recent developments, including the H.R. 4132 Falun Gong Protection Act recently passed by the U.S. House of Representatives, the documentary is not only timely but a vital educational film on a devastating and ongoing issue.
