Documentary unveils the Chinese spirit and cultural heritage

China Daily  

Huayudong Bridge in Qingzhen, Guizhou province, is a winner of the Gustav Lindenthal Medal, one of the most prestigious international bridge construction awards. MICHEL EULER/AP Beyond Mountains and Rivers is a documentary that profoundly explores the construction and development of bridges in Guizhou Province. Comprised of three episodes, each with its own distinct theme — "Dream of Plains,", "Breaking Records," and "High-Speed Plains" — the film transcends mere documentation of Guizhou's infrastructure and economic growth. Building a bridge may initially appear as stubborn persistence, yet when this persistence accumulates, it evolves into a relentless pursuit—an ambition to transform Guizhou's rugged landscape into smooth passageways, effectively creating its own "plains.". In Guizhou, nestled among mountains and rivers, numerous ethnic groups reside, each with its unique cultural heritage and lifestyle, contributing distinct colors and charm to Chinese society.
