    Really good film. Worth seeing.

    The film is very touching. The storylines are combined in an elegant way. The combination of the animation and the present-day footage is also very beautiful and fluent. The film tells the truth of a touching Chinese history that is defamed and concealed by the Chinese authority. The film is well-made and of great value. It is really worth seeing.

    Very real

    This film to hand-drawn to 3D animation techniques to restore the real events of the year. It's very moving because it's real. You can see that the crew has made a lot of efforts to restore the real events. Many people were interviewed and many places were visited. The music also fits well.

    I am also not surprised that people with a Chinese Communist government background leave messages to confuse people. In fact they hadn't even seen the film. They don't even know what the film is about. They just seem to be purposely falsely promoting it with a mission and stereotypes. To make people think that Falun Gong is bad is their purpose. And they don't care about the truth.

    This movie is produced by lives and bloods.

    I remembered I fist saw this movie online in May. Form the beginning till the end, tears keep rolling down on my face. I didn't know how much those heroes and their families suffered behind the scenes. But I did know that this story is only one corner of the whole picture which happened crucial in China.

    In the world, they are normal persons. But they have created a brilliant poem with lives and blood. And this poem will be lasted forever!

    I am curious, how come a person is willing to sacrifice his (her) life for others? The other people has nothing related to him (her). After I have seen this movie, I started to think of many things I have never considered. What is the meaning of life? What is the value to make living?

    Don't miss it! Truth and integrity give us power!

    A great movie, very touching, absolutely extraordinary

    The movie Eternal Spring is using an unique form and telling a great story. The documentary recorded the group of people are so brave, so benevolent, and... I admire all of these people and the director as well as the painter. Thank you very much for bringing this great story to us!

    I really like the drawings that the movie used to present the story's background. I remembered that it's a city in China that has tramway. We don't have it in New York city. I feel that the city is cold, but people has warm hearts. Especially the group of young people who risked their lives to bring people the hope. A sad story but make me feel warm in heart.

    A beautiful, heart-breaking masterpiece

    Eternal Spring is a unique masterpiece. Through a skillful combination of animation, real-life footage, and heart-breaking interviews, the film manages to make the story and its characters come to life on the screen and in the heart of the spectators. Looking at the beautiful drawings as a spectator, one reconnects to his or her own childhood memories and builds a deeper connection with the people who had to and ARE STILL GOING through this brutal perspecution. Those grim memories become even more real through animated characters' lives, than real-life pictures and real news coverage.

    As a precious takeaway, the movie reminded me that real heroes are those whose strength is kind, pure, and transcending the self. And that strength is most of the time is not seen on the surface, but can make far-reaching changes. Carrying this beautiful message with me through the day helps me to be stronger in my kindness, tolerance, and in my care for the ones around me.

    A huge thank-you to the creators of the movie!
