孩子是一个完整的人，有着独立的思考和感受能力， 甚至很多时候做得比大人还要好， 但现实是，大人们太容易在呵护孩子的同时，忽略这一点。 我们总是以成人的角度去判断孩子的需求， 我们总是「让孩子听话」，却很少「听孩子说话」; 其实孩子身上的本真，大人要向小孩学; 孩子的很多外在情绪表现，背后隐藏着需要被看见、被接纳的需求。

祝所有的小朋友、大朋友节日快乐！

我喜欢千奇百怪的结果 我把这叫做浪漫

Creating Watchtower of China was a labour of love. I say labour because we, meaning my crew and I, throughout three consecutive summers, visited over seventy cities and travelled countless thousands of kilometers. Everywhere we went, we found ourselves channelling the powerful energy of this great land to find the strength and inspiration to continue our quest along what became life-changing for all of us. When we initially gathered together we were a film crew. By the time we were done, three years later, we had become a family.

I say love, because what we have created is more than just a film. It is a declaration of our love for this Country.

When I set out on this project I wanted to create a visual tribute to China - an honest observation of daily life. Not a surface travelog, but a real and raw representation of the cultural history. An honoring of Chinese culture, identity, and the complex and varied way of living that spans the enormity of the Chinese territory. A window on the dedication and discipline, the craftsmanship and hard work of the Chinese people. They have an energy of moving forward together as they draw power and inspiration from a culture that looks back over thousands of years, yet rushes fearlessly towards a bold future.

I started to feel this intense energy, as though this cultural pride and determination were now moving through me and my camera. The experience of this film buried itself so deeply within me that I can still feel the hard day’s work in my muscles.

It couldn’t have come together without the help of my dear friends, especially Jolien Snyers and Ricky Choy (did you spot Ricky in the film? She’s in multiple shots and sings in the very last taxi shot!)

It is one of my proudest accomplishments. 
I hope you love it.
