Jaeson Ma spent the past year making the film 1040, about the spread of Christianity in the area known as the “10/40 window”, referring to the area between 10 degrees and 40 degrees North latitude in the Eastern hemisphere. The film covers China, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Indonesia. Jaeson is friends with a lot of entertainers in Asia, so the documentary has a large amount of interviews with stars like Van Ness Wu, Jin Tha MC, and Sean Noh (of Jinusean). The powerful film can get intense, as it shows people talking in tongues, exorcisms. It also contains moving interviews and coverage about missionary activity Asians are doing in places where westerners really can’t go anymore, like in Afghanistan. Visit the film’s website here, where there is info if you have a church you’d like to attend screenings with and see the hard work of these guys culminate on the screen.

Two additional interviews below the cut.
This is still incomplete…I don’t have a few people in here, and I wanted to put an after pic of everyone, but I got way too tired of that so I only put some for some people I didn’t think people would know (like all the mainland guys apparently), but eventually I will update this and make it the most comprehensive Chinese celeb baby picture list ever.
