Outstanding recommendations. I like Nikki's suggestion of pairing this discussion with Animal Farm (see Chinese editions: https://twitter.com/claydube/status/824333295005511680 ). There is an educational version that schools/districts may wish to purchase:
Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Gate-Heavenly-Peace-Tiananmen-Square/dp/1463103743
Center for Asian American Media http://caamedia.org/films/gate-of-heavenly-peace/
The main website for the documentary is at: http://www.tsquare.tv/ It includes a lot of useful resources for teachers.
Two other films about the Tiananmen demonstrations are: part 3 "Born under the Red Flag" of the China: A Century of Revolution Series
