A personal tragedy inspired choreographer Ma Cong to create an emotional piece of work that is now touring China. Chen Nan reports.
In 2014, Chinese choreographer Ma Cong was thinking of ideas for his new work for the US-based Richmond Ballet when his mother passed away.
The loss came to inspire that work, titled Lift the Fallen, in which Ma explores the process of grieving, healing, continuing on with one's life and even becoming stronger.
