Award-winning journalist and filmmaker John Pilger brings an alarming history of escalating tensions between two of the world's biggest superpowers, in his latest film, The Coming War on China.

Pilger reveals what the news doesn't - that the world's greatest military power, the United States, and the world's second economic power, China, both nuclear-armed, are on the road to war.

Filmed over two years in the Marshall Islands, Japan, Korea, China and the United States, The Coming War on China reveals what Pilger suggests is a build-up to war on the doorstep of China. More than 400 US military bases now encircle China in what one strategist calls ‘a perfect noose’. 

Don't miss this vital and timely film, now available to stream at SBS On Demand for a limited time.
