About the Project

"Inquiry of Shadows" is a documentary that delves into the hidden depths of the Uyghur genocide in China. Through personal accounts, expert insights, and historical analysis, the film unveils the dark nexus of psychological warfare, cultural obliteration, and the silencing of artistic and intellectual voices.

The film confronts questions of ethics, accountability, and the collective responsibility of the international community to address and prevent genocide. By shedding light on these critical topics, "Inquiry of Shadows" aims to provoke thought, inspire action, and ultimately contribute to the ongoing dialogue surrounding human rights and global justice.
