A screening, followed by a Q&A with Kate Adie and Producer/Director Nick Read
To millions of TV viewers, Kate Adie remains synonymous with war reporting. It became a joke in the British Army that when Adie arrived on the scene they knew they were in trouble.
But there is one assignment that stands out as the most difficult of her career: reporting the massacre of hundreds of civilians in Beijing on June 3rd and 4th 1989. She was one of the very few Western television reporters out on the streets then, and witnessed the killings at close quarters.
Twenty years on, Kate returns to China. Denied an official journalists’ visa, she and her crew have to travel incognito, posing as tourists and meeting contributors in secret.
