We're gearing up for our Hong Kong trip next week and bringing AUTUMN GEM to a venue near you! We have several screenings lined up at universities in the area from October 24-28. All events are free and open to the general public.AUTUMN GEM explores the extraordinary life of the “Chinese Joan of Arc” Qiu Jin (1875-1907). A radical women’s rights activist, Qiu Jin defied tradition to become the leader of a revolutionary army. She attempted an armed uprising against the corrupt Qing Dynasty and became the first female martyr for China’s 1911 Revolution. Qiu Jin is celebrated as a national heroine today.The hour-long film was produced and directed by two San Francisco Bay Area Chinese American filmmakers, Rae Chang and Adam Tow. It stars former China National Wushu Champion and Hollywood stunt actress Li Jing.Check out our full Hong Kong schedule below:Monday, October 24: City University of Hong KongAV Room/R6143, Level 6, Amenities BuildingTat Chee Avenue, Kowloon, Hong KongTime: 4:30pm.Monday, October 24: Hong Kong Baptist UniversityCVA 104, Communication and Visual Arts Building5 Hereford Road, Kowloon Tong, Kowloon, Hong KongTime: 6:30pm.Tuesday, October 25: University of Hong KongMain Building Room 121Pokfulam, Hong KongTime: 5:00pm.Wednesday, October 26: Chinese University of Hong KongLG04, Hui Yeung Shing Building, Chung Chi CollegeShatin, NT, Hong KongTime: 12:00pm.Thursday, October 27: Hong Kong University of Science and TechnologyTsang Shiu Tim Art Hall, Clear Water Bay, Kowloon, Hong KongTime: 6:30pm.Friday, October 28: Hong Kong Institute of EducationChan Siu Chow Performing Studio (D2-LP-05), Block D2, Lower Podium, Room 0510 Lo Ping Road, Tai Po, New Territories, Hong KongTime: 4:00pm.We'll be doing a behind-the-scenes presentation and Q-and-A at each event.
