Hey, movie buffs! 🎥 Last night in LA, CGTN America co-hosted the North American premiere of Dead to Rights, a gripping film that brings the 1937 Nanjing Massacre to the big screen. It’s raw, real, and reminds us why history matters—no subtitles needed to feel the emotion.
The screening drew directors, cultural voices, and historians who believe cinema can spark dialogue and healing. Think of those moments at the Busan International Film Festival or when your favorite K-drama tackles heavy themes—this is film with purpose. 🕊️
This year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War. Dead to Rights hits hearts and minds, urging us to remember and talk about the past.
The film dropped in Australia and New Zealand on August 7, and from August 15 you can catch it in over 250 cinemas across the United States (with 20,000+ screenings!). 🇺🇸 After that, it heads to the UK, Germany, France, Russia, the ROK, Malaysia, Singapore, and beyond. 🌏
For all our South and Southeast Asian readers, whether you’re chilling after an internship in Mumbai or winding down in a coworking space in Jakarta, grab your crew and check out this cinematic journey. It’s more than a movie—it’s a bridge across generations. 🍿✨
