BBC - When China Met Africa (2011) Information When China Met Africa A historic gathering of over fifty African heads of state in Beijing reverberates in Zambia where the lives of three characters unfold. Mr Liu is one of thousands of Chinese entrepreneurs who have settled across the continent in search of new opportunities. He has just bought his fourth farm and business is booming. In northern Zambia, Mr Li, a project manager for a multinational Chinese company, is upgrading the country's longest road. Pressure to complete the job on time intensifies when funds from the Zambian government start running out. Meanwhile, Zambia's trade minister is en route to China to secure millions of dollars of investment. Through the intimate portrayal of these three characters, the expanding footprint of a rising global power is laid bare - pointing to a radically different future not just for Africa but also for the world Technical Specs Video Codec: XviD ISO MPEG-4 Video Bitrate: 1481 kbps Video Resolution: 720 x 416 Video Aspect Ratio: 1.731 (16:9) Frames Per Second: 25 Audio Codec: 0x2000 (Dolby AC3) Audio Bitrate: 192 kb/s AC3 48000 Hz Audio Streams: 2ch Audio Languages: English Hard subtitles RunTime per Part 75.mins Number of Parts: 1 Part Size: 896 MB Source: DVD Encoded by: Harry65 |

A typically slanted BBC eurodocumentary. Some insight can be gleaned, but any intelligent person is left wondering if that insight, based on carefully edited propaganda, is of any true value. |

Slanted really? I've always liked BBC documentaries because they are more matter of fact than Discovery Channel or History Channel documentaries that tend to over dramatize everything and some how turn it into a matter of US patriotism. I guess it depends on how you view it. |
