Hong Kong, 2012. Dimitri Johnson learns that he is dying. Stunned by his doctors prognosis, he nevertheless makes his ritual annual pilgrimage to the candlelight vigil for the victims of the Tiananmen Square massacre. But this year, he thinks, may be his last. So little time remains. Over on the mainland, Chinese academic Yu Guodong is arrested for protesting against an official land grab in his ancestral village. Guodongs wife appeals to Dimitris family for help, but taking on the forces of the state is fraught with danger. And isnt it simply a fools errand, anyway? A powerful family drama set against the backdrop of the burgeoning protest movement that led to Hong Kongs Umbrella Revolution, Chinese Spring explores the reality of democracy and dissent in modern China. And begs the question: have things really changed for the post-Tiananmen generation?
