Filmmakers James Leong and Lynn Lee present unseen footage from the evening of October 14, 2014 – arguably one of the most dramatic nights of the Umbrella Movement.
Police moved in to clear hundreds of protesters occupying a road in front of the Chief Executive’s offices. Pepper spray was deployed, arrests were made and, in a dark corner, a lone protester was filmed being beaten. Click here for photos.
Leong and Lee are making a 25-minute documentary about democracy in Hong Kong. The three-part series aired, but hours of dramatic footage from the Occupy protests was left over. See their first installment here and part two here.
Clips, anecdotes and photographs are now being published at umbrelladiaries.com.
