Radio Canada International presents 'A NEW FACE FOR BEIJING'

Radio Canada International presents a unique and innovative web series 'A NEW FACE FOR BEIJING'.

The series is about a 25 year-old Chinese-Canadian, Jennifer Hsiung, who moved to China to work for CCTV international as their sports anchor 2 years ago. The series documents her integration into the Chinese community and the transformations of Beijing in the last few months.

The atmosphere is Beijing is electric, and the series captures the environment and mood of the people in the capital as the Olypic Games' Opening Ceremony fast approaches.

The series is shot by Jennifer's sister, Tiffany, and together they offer a different lens through which to view Beijing from the point of view of CBC's (Canadian born Chinese) and ABC's (American born Chinese) living in the city. This unique viewpoint has made the series a great success so far.
