China Cry (1990) - (English language) -

It is set in the 1950s and based on the true story of Sung Neng Yee. Born into a wealthy Chinese family, she is first eager to become part of Mao Zedong's "new society". But the Maoist regime brings hardship and misery to her family. She is arrested by authorities, and she believes that only Jesus Christ must have saved her when she survives a firing squad. She is taken to a labour camp while pregnant, but survives to take her children and family to freedom, which is granted after she sends from the Labour Camp in Shanghai three copies of the same telegram to the Chairman Mao, Prime Minister Chu & Beijing Police Headquarters.
