Ai Weiwei – The Fake Case

After 81 days in prison in complete isolation, Chinese artist Ai Weiwei is released under house arrest. Eighteen cameras watch him constantly, the police follow his every move and his legal battle with the Chinese government seems endless. Ai Weiwei is shaken, suffering sleep disorders and memory loss, yet he never stops looking for new ways to provoke and outwit the powerful Chinese authorities in his tireless struggle for human rights. He firmly believes China is ready for change, and he will do whatever is in his power to bring it about.
