The government approved it at first, but as it gained in popularity it was seen as a threat. Seventy to 100 million people were practicing Falun Gong, when it was outlawed in 1999. The government started brutally suppressing the followers. Practitioners have been beaten, placed in psychiatric hospitals where brainwashing and torture are used; others are held in labor camps where severe abuse and even murder have been reported. The government tries to justify its actions by fabricating stories about the dangers of Falun Gong. Human rights groups around the world are calling attention to the Chinese government's abuses. The film relates the story of a woman Zhizhen Dai whose husband was persecuted and murdered for his belief in Falun Gong. She now journeys around the world telling of his brutal death and of the ongoing suffering of millions of Chinese persecuted practitioners. 001356254 521__ $$aFor College; Adult audiences. 001356254 546__ $$aEnglish. 001356254 586__ $$aAmerican/Chinese Human Rights Film Festival, Washington D.C., 2007 001356254 650_0 $$aFalun Gong (Organization) 001356254 650_0 $$aHuman rights$$zChina. 001356254 650_0 $$aPersecution$$zChina. 001356254 655_0 $$aDocumentary. 001356254 85640 $$zAccess restricted to subscribers.$$uhttp://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?FLON;1652574 001356254 901__ $$aASP1652574/flon$$bVaAlASP$$c25627$$tbiblio 001356254 905__ $$uadmin 001356254 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1356254$$pGLOBAL_SET 001356254 944__ $$a1785235$$z1003831379 001356254 945__ $$aNorth America$$cMiddle East 001356254 980__ $$aSTREAMING 001356254 980__ $$aBIB 001356254 982__ $$aStreaming Video 001356254 983__ $$aOnline
