Autumn Gem is a documentary film project based in Santa Clara, California, focused on exploring the life of Qiu Jin, considered China’s first feminist. The hour-long feature portrays her work as a writer, women's rights advocate, and leader of a revolutionary group, offering an intimate portrait of early 20th-century Chinese feminism. Produced and directed by two San Francisco Bay Area Chinese American filmmakers, the film situates itself within the Movies, Videos and Sound industry while aiming to illuminate gender roles and historical context. The project emerged in the digitization era, with a notable development in 2012 when it announced a version for the Apple iPad, reflecting an effort to reach new audiences through digital platforms.
