Summary:
In China, it is simply known as 'The River.' But the Yangtze -- and all of the life that surrounds it -- is undergoing a truly astonishing transformation wrought by the largest hydroelectric project in history, the Three Gorges Dam. Canadian documentary filmmaker Yung Chang returns to the gorgeous, now-disappearing landscape of his grandfather's youth to trace the surreal life of a 'farewell cruise' that traverses the gargantuan waterway.
