Southern China - From Macao to Sichuan

Over 1.3 billion people live in China and they travel with large speed into the future. No other country in the world develops so dynamically into a complete industrial nation. But the modern society also preserves her traditions which still shows traces of the influences from western civilizations.

The documentary leads to the south of China to Macao as well as to the provinces Hunan, Guizhou and Sichuan. The landscapes in these regions of China are overwhelming. They reach from the national forest park Zhangjiajie, the Yellowstone park of China with its bizarre rock towers, up to the Karst mountains of the park of the seven stars. The authorities permitted with an unexpected frankness to film the everyday life of the Chinese and to participate in spectacular culture events. Also the team was allowed to have a critical glance at such out- dated habits like the manufacture of products from shark fins for men who still believe that using them will improve their sexual power.

Picturesque houses in Fenghuang impress as well as the highest stone made Buddha statue in the world. Highlight is the visit of a Panda Bear Sanctuary which successfully practices a breeding programme to save the species from extinction.
