All Static & Noise
A powerful film exposing the mass atrocities committed by the Chinese government against the Uyghur and Kazakh minorities in Western China. The film features testimonies and stories from survivors and their families who have been subjected to China’s network of “re-education camps.” Through the stories of Jewher, a Uyghur teenager who is violently separated from her father, and Abduweli, a linguist and poet who was imprisoned and tortured, the film highlights the moral dilemma faced by those who want to speak out against the state-sponsored oppression but fear the safety of their families. Director Novack gives us a poignant reminder of the need for global awareness and action in the face of human rights violations.
