Stories from the heart: A Russian sinologist couple's footsteps in China

CGTN

Stories of daily life show how government policies play out in people's real world experience.

That focus on lived experience is what makes the Semenovs' current mission so natural. Having trained their lens on how China's people-first governance translates into social and economic change since the 1980s, they now pan out to a wider frame: their own homeland. They invite the world to explore Russia, its literature, culture and landscapes, because political thought only becomes real when seen through people's daily lives.
