China and the Chinese, No. 2

1917

Synopsis

Part 2, found at the New Zealand Film Archive, zeros in on urban Chinese workers—peddlers, barbers, cooks, street performers, laborers, and rickshaw drivers—and includes scenic views of Hankou and Chongqing from the water. Today, just watching the street traffic is fascinating.
