In late 2011, Wukan, a small fishing village in southern China , captured international attention when it rose up against decades of corrupt leadership. The odds appeared insurmountable - the authorities are not known for tolerating dissent.

Filmmakers Lynn Lee and James Leong follow Wukan's villagers as they grapple with the challenges of a new political system.
