Autumn Gem tells the story of China's first feminist, Qiu Jin (1875 -1907). During China's last dynasty, Qiu Jin challenged traditional roles, demanding equal rights for women. An accomplished writer, political activist, and leader of a revolutionary army, she redefined what it meant to be a woman in early 20th-century China.
