SOUNDBITE (English): MALCOLM CLARKE, British documentary filmmaker
"I think what filmmakers need to do is both tell the story of China's great technological progress, but also very importantly tell stories about the people who are making that progress - the Chinese people, because that is what we do not understand in the West.
If we understand the true nature, the kindness, the integrity of the Chinese people, then all the technology, all the inventions, all the great developments technologically can be seen in the context that we can trust the Chinese government and the Chinese people. We need to develop trust."
