HRAFF Perth Presents: The 10 Conditions of Love followed by a Q&A with Director, Jeff Daniels

Human Rights Arts and Film Festival Perth Presents: The 10 Conditions of Love followed by a Q&A with Director, Jeff Daniels

A film by Jeff Daniels, An Arcimedia and Common Room Production

THE 10 CONDITIONS OF LOVE is a story of a woman, a man, a family, a people and a homeland. It is the story of Rebiya Kadeer.

It is also the story of the other Tibet, the Muslim Tibet - the country its people call East Turkestan, but which the Chinese call Xinjiang Province - the other stain on China's moral character.

It is a story of of 20-million people; of the global politics of energy; of politicking over the War on Terror; and of the pain of a deeply loving family torn violently apart.

Exiled in the US, Rebiya Kadeer is fighting for the human rights of her people, the Uyghur (pron. wee-ger), China's oppressed Muslim minority. But Rebiya Kadeer's campaign condemns her sons to on-going solitary confinement in a Chinese prison. Having done six years' solitary confinement herself, she understands the appalling consequences for them of her actions - but she will not relent.

Twice nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize, once the richest businessperson in China, Rebiya Kadeer is a remarkable woman who pays daily a terrible price for patriotism.

And it will never be over.

HRAFF Perth are thrilled to host Director Jeff Daniels for a Q&A following the screening.

This is the HRAFF Perth's first Fundraising Event and kicks off our campaign to create a bold arts and film festival, dedicated to making human rights relevant, significant and accessible for all Western Australians.

Please join us for drinks and nibbles from 5.30pm. The screening will begin at 6pm, with Q&A from 7pm.
