Exploring what will happen to ordinary people as the river rises

540screen The Three Gorges Dam spanning China’s Yangtze River is the largest hydroelectric project in the world. When finished, it will provide mammoth amounts of hydroelectric power to the country and its people-but it will also cause the waters of the Yangtze to rise, obliterating many homes. Thousands will have to relocate to the highland and start anew. Yung Chang’s new documentary Up the Yangtze, opening at the Bijou this weekend, explores the different worlds created by the dam and illuminates a darkened corner that may soon disappear under the waters of the Yangtze.

The resulting film is far from academic. Up The Yangtze is not a National Geographic special report on a nation’s economic climate, but a film focusing on two young people from different parts of China.
