Living

Episode number 7 of Series “Heart of the Dragon”.
Over four fifths of China’s 1000 million inhabitants are peasants. This program visits a rural village to discover how they live. We follow the day to day life of a village family and focuses on the local Party secretary to depict the organisation of the village as a whole and the brigade and commune of which it is a part.
