About the Documentary and Discussants:
When China’s Communist Party breaks its promise of autonomy to Hong Kong, a teenager rallies thousands of kids to occupy the streets and becomes an unlikely leader and dissident. The discussion to follow features UCI graduate students Chit Wai John Mok, sociology, and Lev Nachman, political science, following the screening. The discussion will be led by Carlin Romano.
