Chinas’ children of tomorrow | VPRO Documentary
112In Chinese dreams, documentary maker and China expert Ruben Terlou travels further through China, driven by his fascination for the Chinese and with the rapidly changing society as a compass.
No country in the world is so concerned with the future of its children as China. On the prosperous east coast, Ruben sees how parents are doing everything they can to offer their child the best possible future. With children from a boarding school he walks a long march of forty kilometers and talks about their dreams.
Ruben also speaks with parents who had one child as a result of the one-child policy and who lost it as a result of fate. They find support from each other and share their concerns about the absent future; because who will look after them when they are old?
