China is the home for 56 official ethnic groups. The largest group, the Han, make up over 93% of China 's vast population, and it is the elements of Han civilization that world considers "Chinese culture." Yet, the 55 ethnic minorities, nestled away on China 's vast frontiers, maintain their own rich traditions and customs, and all are part of Chinese culture.
Most of these ethnic minorities live in the vast areas of the West, Southwest and Northwest. Although minority ethnic groups account for about 7% of the population, they are distributed over some 50% of Chinese-controlled territory, mostly in border regions.
Our collection is trying to highlight today's minorities' life in the context of a society's huge transformation. Films and pictures were taken during our trip to South-west border of China in October 2018.
