Wukan: The Flame of Democracy

Late in 2011, Wukan, a village in southern China, captured international attention when demonstrators flooded the streets, rebelling against decades of corrupt rule. Despite the hurdles, the unthinkable happened in Wukan - the village committee fell and democratic elections were announced. But, what happens after a successful uprising? WUKAN: THE FLAME OF DEMOCRACY follows the challenges faced by a rural Chinese community after adopting a new political system.
