Overview
This documentary depicts the stories of four Chinese activists—Xie Wenfei, Zhang Shengyu, Chen Yunfei, and Liu Ping—who faced torture. It also invites Hong Kong participants Chan Ho-wun, Li On-yin, Chen Hung Sau, and Cheung Chiu-hung to experience and reflect on these situations through simulated installations. The film highlights that in the advancement of human civilization, "human rights", "rule of law", and "democracy" are mutually indispensable and interdependent. In countries ruled by authoritarian regimes, the rule of law cannot be upheld, let alone the protection of human rights.
