Raise your hand if you want to visit cities along the Yangtze River during the Labor Day holiday! Join Japanese director Ryo Takeuchi on this incredible journey, traveling approximately 6,300 kilometers to capture the essence of the Yangtze River, focusing on the lives of ordinary people and showing the authentic changes in their lives and environment.

The documentary soared to the top of Japan's arthouse charts just 11 days after its release. Chinese Ambassador to Japan Wu Jianghao said, "It's a profound documentary that appeals to people of all ages and I hope more Japanese people will have the chance to see it.” The film also featured at the 14th Beijing International Film Festival this year. CGTN's Jin Liu conducted an exclusive interview with Takeuchi where he shared his expectations for the film.
