Revisiting her unfinished documentary about the exiled leaders of the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, filmmaker Christine Choy reckons with the legacy of that moment in China’s history. Virtual Q&A with Choy to follow.

Winner, U.S. Documentary Grand Jury Prize at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival. In 1989, acclaimed documentarian Christine Choy began shooting a film about three exiled dissidents from the Tiananmen Square massacre and their resettlement and activism. The film was never finished, in The Exiles, co-directors Ben Klein and Violet Columbus free the historical footage from the archival vault and employ Choy herself as a lens into the past and present of the Tiananmen three and their lasting impact. [95 min; documentary; English]
