Abstract:

"A chronicle of two days in the life of an eleven-year-old Chinese girl, this program provides an unusual opportunity to examine city life in the world's most populated country. While exploring the activities of daily living, the program suggests larger issues such as the role of children in a one-child per family society, competition for entry into 'good' schools, the quality of life in crowded cities and modern influences on Chinese life." -- AIMS Multimedia || Director Leslie M.
