Canadian Premiere

Reviews and Reactions
( What Critics Are Saying )
“Insightful. Timely. Part coming-of-age story and political thriller. The investigation storyline will enthrall true crime fanatics, while families will appreciate the kinship of the Browde brothers.
Film Threat
“Gripping & emotionally charged... Masterfully blends personal storytelling with investigative reporting... the clearest, and most detailed, documented case of Beijing trying to take down an American institution.
The Hollywood Times
“A deeply moving narrative about artistic survival and a level of dedication that is rarely seen in the modern world…A show this beautiful and a story this “unbroken” deserves a focused audience. If you’re at all interested in Asian culture, history, or the power of art to defy authority, you really should check out this documentary.
