ISTANBUL, Dec. 25 (Xinhua) -- A new documentary offering a glimpse into everyday life in China's northwestern Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is set for an online premiere in early January, its director said on Wednesday.
The half-hour film, "Seven Days in Xinjiang," was named after Turkish filmmaker Serkan Koc's week-long stay in the region.
Koc told Xinhua that the film, through its portrayal of Chinese culture, offers a chance for Turkish and Chinese audiences to connect and better understand each other by discovering shared cultural elements.
Koc conducted spontaneous interviews, approaching people he met on the streets, buses, and metro, as well as in markets, and recording their stories.
The documentary also showcases local customs, cuisine, and traditional dances and music.
