China Cry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
China Cry is a biographical film set during rise of the communist state in China, based on the book by Nora Lam. It is set in the 1950s based on the true story of Sung Neng Yee. Born into a wealthy Chinese family, she is first eager to become part of Mao Tse Tung's "new society". But the new Marxist regime brings hardship and misery to her family. She is arrested by authorities, and she believes that only Jesus Christ must have saved her when she survived a firing squad. She is taken to a labour camp while pregnant, but survives to take her children and family to freedom. The film was directed by James F. Collier, and is an example of positive Asian characters in a Christian-themed film.
