The 400-minute documentary celebrates the 10th anniversary of Hong Kong's return to China.

In the past half year, crews travelled to every corner of the Island, capturing a true portrait of Hong Kong and its people. H-D digital and aircraft cameras are widely used to ensure picture quality and dimension.

Compared to the Hong Kong-centered documentary CCTV produced ten years ago, we see in this new production that more than just the technology has changed in the meantime.

Zhang Changming, vice supervisor of China Central Television, said, "The program 'Hong Kong Ups and Downs' we screened in 1997 focused on the history of Hong Kong. It started with the Opium War in the mid-19th century. The center message was how local people were fighting against foreign invasion. And 'Hong Kong 10 Years' eyes on today's Hong Kong after it enjoys a high degree of autonomy."

More than 100 hundred ordinary residents are featured in "Hong Kong 10 years". Their experiences serve as the most convincing examples.

The documentary can also be seen on Asian Television in Hong Kong.
