In 1989, documentarian, activist, and iconoclast Christine Choy filmed the leaders of the Tiananmen Square democracy movement following the June 4th massacre. Midway through production, the project was abandoned and the footage was all but forgotten. Directors Violet Columbus and Ben Klein follow Choy as she returns to the never before seen archive, and the stories of three key figures during the protests, who remain political exiles to this day.
