5.30pm-6.45pm LETTER FROM MASANJIA (Feature Documentary)
Part thriller, part expose, this poignant documentary explores the indomitability of the human spirit. When a woman in Oregon opens a box of Halloween decorations and finds a distressing letter written by a political prisoner from inside a Chinese labour camp, her discovery makes waves across major news outlets worldwide. The letter’s author has no comprehension of just how much that letter will change his life – and the lives of others. (subtitled)
