I watched this film at the Vancouver Asian Film Festival and was not surprised that it was this year's award winning film. My wife and I like films that are based on true events, so as to become more conscientiously aware of the world around us.At the end of this film my heart was deeply moved by the shocking revelation, that such a horrific atrocity of live organ harvesting is systematically underway by the Chinese Communist Party and still happening to this day.Something struck my inner core deeply and I was left with uncontrollable tears of shock, horror and sadness that such things are playing out in real life. Like a surreal horror movie or nightmare come to life... I've since been interested in helping any way I can to help spread the awareness locally here to my community at large of organ harvesting in China. I have been lead to our university and found a group of individuals who are trying to educate students and professors about these present day atrocities and am wanting to continue to support these endeavors in which ever way, shape or form I can. My thoughts and prayers go out to all prisoners of conscious being persecuted by the Chinese government 🙁😔🙁

low budget project, poor acting, actors tried so hard, but cant create some tears to make them look really angry or sad. Full of mistakes: wound disappear so fast, people believe in just two articles from the internet, a contractor can meet high ranking officials(same mistake in the Snowden movie). About the concept of the movie, I really don't know if it's true. The Pope invited China to organ trafficking summit this year, so I think the movie is based on fake stories. One thing the movie did right is to tell people do not practice Falun Gong, or you will end up in jail, and "there's nothing you can do".

This follows the story of a Canadian techie in China to install improvements to the Great Firewall of China, and a woman that is imprisoned based only on the fact that she is a Falun Gong practitioner. It exposes one of the uglier sides of China under the Communist Party - "transplant tourism" for money. Political prisoners were and still are routinely killed for organ harvesting. The acting and not-quite-mega-budget production values are not the best, but the message is overpowering despite those flaws. Easy to see why China has blocked this movie, and has gone so far as to pressure many movie theaters to not show it.

I recommend this film, highly. It puts you in the middle of the action in China -- spying, lying, profiteering, violence -- that China doesn't want anyone to know about. Gave me goosebumps to think that the technology and heartless state policy in the film is real. That realism raised the stakes for the action and the plot to incredible heights. Props to a refreshingly intelligent thriller. Probably not a good one for young kids, FYI, but it would be good for a younger generation, say, teenagers, to see it because there'a a good message and it could open their eyes to some crazy stuff going on in the world right now that they'd be better for knowing. Plus, they'd be riveted, just like anyone, by the story.
