The film “Joshua: Teenager vs. Superpower” shows how the young organizer Joshua Wong rallied fellow students in 2012 to protest Chinese meddling in the school curriculum and how it snowballed into a powerful pro-democracy movement. Filmmaker Joe Piscatella draws upon multiple sources of footage to chronicle how Joshua faced controversies and crackdowns.
