An Emotional Moment: Family in "Finding Courage" Attend DocUtah to a Warm Reception and Hugs

We are honored “Finding Courage” was selected to be screened at the DocUtah International Film Festival! Yifei and her family were able to attend the event, and for them, it was a cathartic experience to witness first-hand their dream being realized through seeing the audience reaction to the film. (To show the world the unimaginable horrors they had to endure at the hands of the Chinese Communist Party simply for practicing and holding on to their faith)

More than anything though, Yifei and her family want to be a voice to the many millions more like them still suffering in China. 

We are so glad Yifei and her family got to be there for this event, and so thankful to DocUtah for making all of this possible.
