Please join us for a screening and discussion of , a 2025 Oscar Contender for Best Documentary Feature and an eye-opening expose revealing a state sanctioned, billion-dollar transplant industry fueled by forced organ harvesting in China.

Produced by Peabody Award-winner Raymond Zhang with a score by Emmy Award-winning composer Daryl Bennett, the film follows two Chinese families in their 20-year-long search for their loved ones who have disappeared in police custody. Along the way, they uncover a harrowing government-run organ harvesting operation that has destroyed many thousands of lives.

With operatives of the CCP being arrested throughout the US, and the regime’s attempts to suppress Falun Gong throughout the world, this documentary is not only timely, but a vital educational film on a devastating and ongoing issue.
