β€œThis boutique cinema I highly recommend for films from other countries that are insightful and memorable. The Documentary State Organs was official contender for 97th Oscars, and win 42 international accolades. It screened August 2025 at Rialto cinema, Newmarket. Transplant human soul collective theme is "want too much another". It is excruciatingly painful for donors, a lot of the time even more so than donor recipients. Liver organ is "regeneration" which can be controlled by being immersed in the Arts- books, film, music, acting. Kidney organs is "marriage ability" which takes a lot of control to manifest the "same right yoke" (Christian term for marriage husband and wife equality). The book Soulmates by Author Rita Roger's is my number one book to describe what everyone has, that one truest love above all, that no one can replace or understand same way. Next year a German Doctor will find me, as he appears in my dreams vividly this year, repeatedly even astral sex lol. Anyway, so this movie State Organs is a documentary to be taken most seriously. I'm a world-ranking University of Auckland Arts graduate in history and media that included: Grades A for Chinese Contemporary Media Grade B plus for Screening Hong Kong Grade B plus Media Studies Grade B for Health Systems This documentary is powerful, and exposes China's state sanctioned billion dollar transplant industry which is forced organ harvesting and brutal prosecution of Falun Gong spiritual believers. Falun Gong protest on Queen street whilst exercising in Tai Chi groups. Transplant abuse even involves tourism to China for this purpose. In New Zealand, there are complimentary alternative healers that can work alongside a Doctor which is what University taught to avoid terminal diseases/conditions. TCM Chinese acupuncture and masseuse on K Road is one good recommendation, as well as colon care in Morningside with colonic hydrotherapy and naturopaths also available. "Human need to poop" is panda animal soul collective theme, which is China's national animal. There is a Facebook group called Kiwis Against Forced Organ Harvesting's that people can also join. This boutique cinema has comfortable seats, tidy, clean with boutique cafe, good for special occasions of film screenings. Highly recommend.”
