No Enemies

The video is inspired by I Have No Enemies, a statement Liu Xiaobo prepared for his trial on 25 December 2009, where he was sentenced to 11 years' imprisonment on subversion charges for a peaceful call for democracy in China. It is both a brave political statement and a love letter to his wife, Liu Xia, an artist and photographer, subsequently forcibly confined to her apartment in Beijing, without charge, under guard and largely isolated from the outside world. She had not been accused, or found guilty, of any crime.
