The 2022 documentary Free Chol Soo Lee will play in Pittsburgh on August 17.
An official selection at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, FREE CHOL SOO LEE chronicles the gripping true story of Chol Soo Lee, a legendary figure in the Asian-American community: a Korean immigrant misidentified as Chinese and wrongly convicted of murder, who became a rallying cry for a pan-Asian-American political movement. It is a moving, inspiring tale of grassroots Asian-American activism, depicting the strength of a diverse community as they unite behind a common symbolic cause and ultimately achieve their immediate goal.It plays locally at the Cinemark in Robinson, and tickets are available online.
