WHEN A CITY RISES follows a 21-year-old student, a teenage couple, and a young father of two in their impossible fight for democracy. Relationships break and form amidst tear gas and rubber bullets, and across the border, China’s People Liberation Army awaits. The work, filmed by a collective of seven Hong Kong filmmakers, invites the audience to live the resistance movement from within and tells a story of hope, love, chaos and solidarity among strangers.

How to Watch When A City Rises Legally and Safely

If you want to stream When A City Rises through reputable and legal services, there are a few good options depending on where you are. Subscription platforms like HBO Max, Disney+, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Apple TV+ sometimes carry When A City Rises films or related DC titles—though availability depends on your country.

If you’d rather not commit to a subscription, there are ad‑supported, free (but legal) platforms such as Tubi, Pluto TV, Peacock or Crackle (where available in your region) that occasionally host superhero films.

Lastly, don’t forget about library‑linked streaming options like Kanopy or Hoopla (if your library or university is registered), and official uploads by film distributors on YouTube—these can also give you legal access to classic movies.
