東方欲曉 - 覺醒年代的新青年

中共的成立乃至共產主義革命在中國興起的真實脈絡究竟是怎樣的？中共最早的58 位黨員，幾乎是清一色的中青年知識份子。其中陳獨秀、李大釗、李漢俊、陳望道等人均於五四之前留學日本，馬克思及社會主義理論最先就是由他們從日本翻譯傳播而來，進而播撒向全國。本片以最早發起參與中共黨建及早期馬克思主義傳播的數十位骨幹為載體，沿著馬克思及蘇俄社會主義的傳播脈絡，梳理一代尋找救國路的中國青年知識分子的人生選擇，勾畫中共成立的歷史輪廓。

What was the true train of thought behind the founding of the Chinese Communist Party and the rise of the Communist revolution in China? The 58 earliest members of the CCP were almost exclusively young and middle-aged intellectuals. Among them were Chen Duxiu, Li Dachao, Li Hanjun and Chen Wangdao, all of whom studied in Japan before the May Fourth Movement and were the first to translate and spread Marxism and Socialism from Japan to the rest of the country. This film pictures dozens of pioneers, who were the first to participate in the establishment of the Chinese Communist Party and the early spread of Marxism. Following the spread of Marx and Soviet-Russian socialism, this film sorts out the life choices of a generation of young Chinese intellectuals who are looking for a way to save the country, and outlines the history of the establishment of the Chinese Communist Party.
