CGTN's new documentary "Xinjiang Dawn to Dusk" brings an ancient rhythm to life through the lens of modern China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. Using the 12 shichen – a traditional system that divides the day into 12 segments – as its narrative framework, the documentary unfolds a vivid portrait of Xinjiang across four seasons. Through the lives of more than 20 individuals, it captures the pulse of a land both timeless and new. Blending sweeping landscapes with intimate human stories, "Xinjiang Dawn to Dusk" offers a cinematic journey into the region's enduring vitality and hope.
