Eternal Spring : the heist of China's airwaves

Loftus, Jason, (film director,, screenwriter,, film producer.). Pinard, Yvan, (film producer.). Koo, Kevin, (film producer.). Daxiong, 1975- (on-screen participant.). Lofty Sky Pictures (Firm), (publisher.). Daxiong. (Cast).

In March 2002, a state TV signal in China was hacked by members of the banned spiritual group Falun Gong. Their goal is to counter the government's narrative about their practice. In the aftermath, police raids sweep Changchun City, and comic book illustrator Daxiong (Justice League, Star Wars), a Falun Gong practitioner, is forced to flee. He arrives in North America, blaming the hijacking for worsening violent repression. But his views are challenged when he meets the lone surviving participant to have escaped China, now living in Seoul, South Korea. Combining present-day footage with 3D animation inspired by Daxiong's art, ETERNAL SPRING retraces the event on its 20th anniversary and brings to life an unprecedented story of defiance, harrowing eyewitness accounts of persecution, and an exhilarating tale of determination to speak up for political and religious freedoms, no matter the cost.
