Do you know about arguably the most awful things happening in the world?

The film ‘Hard to Believe' is a serious investigation into one of the most horrifying human rights abuses of our time and the response – or lack of it – around the world.

The murder of prisoners of conscience in China, and the unlawful sale of their organs to foreign patients, comes to life through personal stories, including an author's seven-year investigation and a surgeon's confession.

‘Hard to Believe' is coming to Tauranga on Wednesday, October 26.

The film has won a number of awards, including ‘Best Documentary' at the 2016 Hoboken International Film Festival and ‘Award of Excellence' at the 2016 International Film Festival for Peace, Inspiration and Equality.

'This film shows us the dark face of human rights abuses, of what can come to pass when individuals are reduced, literally, to the sum of their parts,” says Macquarie University Centre for agency, values and ethics deputy director Professor Wendy Rogers.

'The participation of medical practitioners in the harvesting of organs breaches all ethical codes, and is impossible to reconcile with the role of physicians to heal rather than harm.”

‘Hard to Believe' is screening at Rialto Tauranga in the Goddard Centre, 21 Devonport Rd on Wednesday, October 26, at 6pm.
