Oscar Coverage Consideration: Canada's Multi-Award Winning Animated Documentary “Eternal Spring (長春 ).”

We greatly appreciate your coverage consideration. Interviews are available via zoom and in-person (dependent on travel in market). As you know film coverage/interviews from key media and reviews focused on filmmaking from dedicated film critics are a game changer for the release trajectory of an independent film. It is invaluable to help educate, entertain and reach a global audience, certainly when the films central figure, comic book illustrator  Daxiong (Justice League, Star Wars), who is very much the heart of the film, is currently being targeted --- harassed and having his work banned.

Scene clip and complete press materials included below for your ease of reference and private screeners available upon request. We greatly appreciate your coverage consideration as only with your coverage elevating the film and its subject can we illuminate and educate in our world. Many many thanks for your continued support of independent film!

“Eternal Spring ( 長春 )”  Logline:  Confronted with government denunciations and human rights violations against their spiritual practice, a group of Chinese activists executes a bold and perilous plan to hack into state television. 

“Eternal Spring ( 長春 )”   Synopsis:  In March 2002, a state TV signal in China is hijacked by members of banned spiritual group Falun Gong. Their goal is to counter the government narrative about their practice.

In the aftermath, police raids sweep Changchun City, and comic book illustrator Daxiong (Justice League, Star Wars), a Falun Gong practitioner, is forced to flee. He arrives in North America, blaming the hijacking for worsening a violent repression. But his views are challenged when he meets the lone surviving participant to have escaped China, now living in Seoul, South Korea.

Combining present-day footage with 3D animation inspired by Daxiong’s art, Eternal Spring retraces the event on its 20th anniversary, and brings to life an unprecedented story of defiance, harrowing eyewitness accounts of persecution, and an exhilarating tale of determination to speak up for political and religious freedoms, no matter the cost.
