YouTube user 瞭望亞太 (Looking Asia Pacific) posted this video on 3 December 2017, a day before the supposed Deputy Director of China's Criminal Investigation Bureau's post. And although they claimed that this material was 'Made in China,' this YouTuber didn't provide any information about where or when this video was taken or who developed this groundbreaking material:

The convincing video and the seemingly authoritative source led many to believe that this was an authentic invisibility cloak.Īlthough Chen Shiqu does appear to truly be the Deputy Director of the Criminal Investigation Bureau in China, this video does not appear on the official government web site (nor its Facebook page) and our search for a 'quantum cloak' and 'quantum steal material' yielded no results on the CIB web site. In short, the Criminal Investigation Bureau in China did not officially endorse this footage.įurthermore, Chen Shiqu did not create this footage. But if criminals use stealth clothing, what are police supposed to do!? This technology can be employed by the military for soldiers to use as 'stealth military uniforms' and avoid detection by night-vision goggles. Quantum cloak is composed of quantum stealth material made into clothing, which reflects the light waves around the wearer, allowing people wearing such clothes to achieve an 'invisible' effect. However, this video originally gained traction when it was posted to the Chinese social media site Weibo on 4 December 2017 by 陈士渠 (Chen Shiqu), an internet user who claimed to be the Deputy Director of Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security: Most English speaking internet users encountered this footage after it was shared on Facebook by 'Shotded,' where it gained more than 22 million views within two days of its initial posting. The award for best documentary went to director Isaac Kerlow for his film ‘ Haze, It’s complicated‘ while the best short film was for Pasha Reshikov for ‘ Invisible Blanket’.A video purportedly showing a man demonstrating the abilities of his new invisibility cloak went viral in December 2017.

‘Against the Tide: A Journey for Climate Hope’, shared the list of award recipients with other documentaries from different parts of the world. During the session, the audience could ask questions about the film and about Peace Boat to the producer. During the festival, the film was also screened in one of the sessions held at the Black Box at the Publika shopping gallery in Dutamas, where the festival was held. “It is a great honor for us to receive this award and at the same time be able to get the voices of our Ocean and Climate Youth Ambassadors to many more people around the world,” Sarri said. One of the film’s producers, Chema Sarri, attended the award ceremony and collected the award on behalf of Peace Boat.

It was directed by Colombian filmmaker Luis Barreto and was screened for the first time at the November 2017 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP23) in Bonn, Germany. The winning documentary portrays the voyage of seven young leaders from small island states who joined Peace Boat to engage in capacity building and bring their message to citizens and government representatives across the world. This festival, produced by environmental NGO EcoKnights, features environment-themed documentary, feature, animated, archival, and experimental and children’s films from around the world. ‘Against the Tide: A Journey for Climate Hope’, a documentary produced by Peace Boat, won the award for best short documentary at the 11th edition of the Kuala Lumpur Eco Film Festival (KLEFF).
