Up the Yangtze is a dramatic feature documentary film on life inside modern China.
A luxury cruise boat motors up the Yangtze – navigating the mythic waterway known in China simply as “The River.” The Yangtze is about to be transformed by the biggest hydroelectric dam in history.
The Three Gorges Dam – contested symbol of the Chinese economic miracle – provides the epic backdrop for this award-winning film about a family displaced by radical environmental and economic change.
