In the Name of Confucius

Documentary following an unassuming Chinese language teacher who defects and speaks out against the Chinese government's multi-billion dollar Confucius Institute (CI) program.

Sonia Zhao's complaints led to the first closure of a CI on a North American campus, and an outcry against Canada’s largest school board over its plan to open the world’s largest CI. The film examines the risks that the Confucius Institutes could pose to our society.
