"The Coming War on China" - fundraiser screening and Q&A with John Pilger
Event Information
Description
The Coming War on China is a documentary film by the award-winning journalist and filmmaker John Pilger.
Filmed over two years in the Marshall Islands, Japan, Korea, China and the United States, the film reveals a build-up to war on the doorstep of China. More than 400 US military bases now encircle China in what one strategist calls “a perfect noose”. Bringing together rare archive and interviews with witnesses, Pilger reveals America’s secret history in the region, such as the destruction of much of life in the Marshall Islands by the explosion of the equivalent of one Hiroshima every day for 12 years, and the top secret ‘Project 4.1’ that made nuclear guinea pigs of the population.
As Trump threatens China with a trade war and worse, this film is both a warning and an inspiring story of people’s resistance.
The film starts at 18.30 sharp.
