What lies beneath

A small village in Sichuan has been famous for hundreds of years for making and selling fake antiques. During the construction of a Japanese-made factory in the village, a real ancient monument attracts scholars, traders, archaeologists and Japanese builders of the factory to the village. They gather in a teahouse and everyone has his own reasons for being there. What historic influence will the discovery bring? Everybody has a view; everybody has a fantasy.

Leaping into the ageless spirit of freedom

Can a 76-year-old man perform modern dance? The answer is yes. Lau Siu-ming, Hong Kong's pioneer of modern dance, demonstrated that age is not a problem in modern dance as long as you have the spirit of freedom. Though he hasn't given a solo performance for almost 30 years, Lau won warm applause from his performance in My Life as a Dancer The Evolution, held last week at Hong Kong's Kwai Tsing Theater as part of the 2007 Hong Kong Arts Festival.

Looking for place under the sun

Unlike the merry gnomes and hobbits in fairy tales, "little people" in the real world are often sad folks. Sisters Ruan Yanjun, 28, and Ruan Xianhua, 26, are a case in point. As they are only 1.1 meters tall and have childlike faces and voices, people treat them like children of 4 or 5.

Online support boosted

With the Internet now enabling once-isolated individuals to form communities, Ruan Yanjun and Ruan Xianhua spend most of their leisure time chatting with other "little people" online.
