Coming of Age Ceremony - Basha Miao Village
China’s neglected ethnic tribes were once so remotely located that the Cultural Revolution had no impact on them. My challenge as a director was to find a voice for the story. I found Louisa. She spoke with a strong British accent picked up from backpackers with whom she bartered village tours for English classes. Her immense pride in her background came through in every sentence she spoke.
