From Crossroads blog, (thanks to Shanghaiist):

The Unseen China is a 5 part Youtube series that I found recently and highly recommend. For those of us in China, it is sometimes easy to be blinded by the reflections coming from all those shiny new buildings, however just past the major roads of Beijing and Shanghai a different reality exists for many.

Filmed in the Northeast of China, this series looks at the several lives that have not benefited from China’s recent growth.

Give yourself an hour to watch this straight through. It is powerful. [Click Here to Watch All 5 Parts]
