On June 5, 1989, one day after Chinese troops expelled thousands of demonstrators from Tiananmen Square in Beijing, a solitary, unarmed protester stood his ground before a column of tanks advancing down the Avenue of Eternal Peace.

FRONTLINE investigates the mystery of the tank man — his identity, his fate, and his significance for the Chinese leadership.
