Journey to the West

Journey to the West

Six countries in 10 days! A group of Chinese tourists visit Europe for the very first time traveling by bus at whirlwind speed. More and more Chinese tourists visit Europe every day. What do they seek? What is their mental picture of Europe before their journey starts? What are their thoughts when they discover it? This documentary road movie captures with humor and spirit the cultural differences between China and the West in a play of mirrors and contrasts. It also destroys the stereotypes about the emerging Chinese middle class and offers insight and a new perspective of 'us' versus 'them'.
