- 幸彤在監獄
- She’s In Jail
鄒幸彤是一名大律師和女性人權捍衛者,經常代表在中國大陸和香港的維權和示威人士。除此之外,她還是每年六四天安門民主運動燭光悼念活動的組織者。然而,她自己最終也被關進了監獄。她被指控煽動顛覆,面臨可能長達10年的監禁。
這部紀錄片記述一位被逮捕的人權律師鄒幸彤,反影着港區國安法對律師的約束,描繪了社會法治的急劇衰落。同時,也深入探討了鄒幸彤認為法律應該保護公民的堅定不移信念。
導演們在這部紀錄片中探討了勇氣。這部紀錄片探索了勇氣的各個方面,包括面對監禁的堅毅和愛情的離異,以及保持樂觀而堅強意志。主角鄒幸彤的道義責任和維護人權的決心,賦予她無比的勇氣去面對這個從民主治理轉向威權統治的社會轉型時期。
片上配有中英文字幕。

A barrister and a woman human rights defender, Chow Hang Tung represented other activists and protesters in both mainland China and Hong Kong. Chow was also the organizer of the annual candlelight vigil for Tiananmen Massacre. Chow ended up being jailed herself. She was charged with inciting subversion, facing potentially 10 years of imprisonment.
Filming an arrested human rights lawyer Chow Hang Tung under Hong Kong’s National Security Law, this documentary partly portrays a sharp decline in the rule of law in society. It also delves into Chow’s unwavering belief that fundamentally, the law should protect citizens.
In this documentary, the directors examined courage. This documentary explores facets of courage, including the resilience to face imprisonment, the departure of love, and a strong will to remain an optimist. The courage of the main character Chow Hang Tung is driven by moral obligation and determination to protect human rights amidst a transitioning society from democratic governance to authoritarian governance.
The documentary has Chinese and English subtitles.
