Dear Sirs, my attention was drawn in De Volkskrant to the Chinese film Though I am Gone, which was to see on youtube. Nevertheless I was not able to go to this webside because the film was suspended. And this much to my surprise.
Can you correct this and let me have the film on my computer? Many thanks in advance,
Yours truly Frits Leipoldt
same for me. I wanted to see Though I am gone, but it seemed to be gone. Long Chinese arms?

Unfortunately, all those links are blocked in China right now. I bookmarked the Youtube version when I first saw the story, but I didn’t have time to watch it then.
Thank you serapio, many thanks.
I just haven’t watch the tapes, but I will certainly do tonight.
Any other way to see this documentary here in Beijing, as it now seems impossible?
