Power and the People

How does the Communist Party exert control over a population of 1.3 billion? Are village elections a chance for people to take a share in power? Can the party end the rampant corruption and keep the people's trust? Chinese people, from farmer to minister, speak frankly about the problems the country faces and the ways forward.

Shifting Nature

China's environment is in trouble, but solutions often seem as harsh as the problems. A third of the world uses water from China's rivers, but rapid industrialization and climate change have led to bad air, polluted rivers and dire water shortages. One "solution" that has received considerable media attention in the West is the channelling of water in the biggest hydroelectric project in world history. While it has benefited nearly half a million people, relocation from dam areas is causing mammoth social upheaval.

Freedom and Justice

Religious worship in China is problematic for Tibetan Buddhists, Catholics separated from Vatican influence, the 40 million adherents of China's unofficial churches and the Falun Gong. Civic problems include forced evictions, government cover-up of AIDS, corruption and land grabbing. Filmed in Tibetan temples, newspaper offices and a labor camp, this final episode asks: what are the limits of freedom - and the threats to stability?
