Film captures the majesty of Xinjiang
"We want to show an example of China's musical films, and portray modern Xinjiang which is steady, harmonious and beautiful," says Gao Huanggang, general director of the film and president of Tianshan Film Studio.
According to Gao, two storylines run through the production. One follows the three young people, including Jiang Han, and their pursuit of an artistic dream, the other focuses on Jiang's teacher, Li Mingliang, who works as a volunteer village educator over a period of decades.
"In the film, the two stories overlap, showing the spirit of Li, and others of his generation, who devoted their lives to making a contribution to Xinjiang, and the inheritance of that spirit by Li's students," says Gao.
The film also highlights the beautiful scenery of Xinjiang.
