LiNK announces Vancouver as the sole Canadian stop on its U.S.-wide movie tour!


LiNK “nomads” will be stopping by Vancouver on May 1st and 2nd to screen the award-winning film “Crossing”. The Vancouver screening will be their sole Canadian stop on a movie tour that is currently being taken across the U.S. to raise awareness about the ongoing crisis in North Korea. “Crossing” has been touted “A ‘Schindler’s List’ for North Korea” by the Wall Street Journal. Watch the "Crossing" trailer at http://linkglobal.org/take-action/tours/crossing_about.html.

A Q&A session will follow both screenings, with LiNK representatives answering questions from the audience. A press conference will follow the Saturday, May 2nd screening. Don't miss this unique opportunity to learn about the North Korean crisis from one of the biggest non-profit organizations that works directly with North Koreans. It will also be a chance to get more information on how you can get involved and directly help the North Korean people.

LiNK is one of the biggest non-profit organizations working directly with North Korean refugees. Their work includes advocating for North Korean refugees and creating a movement of awareness about the North Korean crisis.
