China Media Group (CMG) unveiled a curated selection of documentaries and films in Macao on Sunday, commemorating the 76th anniversary of the People's Republic of China. The event, attended by Macao Special Administrative Region Chief Executive Sam Hou Fai and CMG President Shen Haixiong, highlights China's cultural, historical, and ecological achievements.
Spotlight on History and Innovation
The lineup includes Mountains and Rivers Bearing Witness, a documentary revisiting pivotal moments from the 1931 September 18 Incident to the 1945 victory against Japanese aggression. Meanwhile, Blue Planet Outside the Window offers unprecedented insights into China's Shenzhou-13 space mission, featuring the nation's first six-month manned space station stay.
Ecology and Everyday Heroes
Marking two decades of China's 'lucid waters and green mountains' environmental initiative, the series Lucid Waters, Green Mountains: China's Answers profiles cities leading ecological progress. Hotline Beijing shifts focus to grassroots governance, documenting how the capital addresses citizen concerns through its 12345 public service hotline.
Cultural Roots and Industrial Legacy
From the etymology-focused Meet the Chinese Characters to explorations of sites like the 816 Underground Nuclear Project, the programs celebrate China's industrial heritage and linguistic traditions. A military parade documentary and profiles of strivers across professions round out the collection.
The showcase runs through September 29 at Macao's youth educational base, with select screenings in local theaters.
