Keep Her Quiet

by Franz Böhm

A tense, politically charged, international thriller about courage under surveillance and the dangerous cost of seeking justice Starring Cannes Best Actress Zar Amir, directed by BAFTA winner Franz Böhm and Suli Kurban.

Based on a true story, the film follows Gülmira, a Washington, D.C.–based Uyghur journalist, and Maryam, a survivor of China's internment camps, as they investigate a wave of mysterious disappearances in Xinjiang. Their search for truth uncovers a chilling pattern of human rights abuses and brings international attention to the persecution of their people. But the more they reveal, the closer danger creeps—until Gülmira realizes that exposing the truth has put the people she loves most in imminent peril.
