This dance is part of the Dance Drama “ White Mountain Black Water”.

In Northeast China, the Black Dragon River lies beneath the White Mountain.  Each spring, the glacier on top of the mountain melts and flows down to the fertile soil and river beneath. The choreographer's inspiration for this dance derives from her imagination of this beautiful combination of the reflection of the tall white mountains in the black water and a fisherman on his boat, paddling through the river. Beside him is the spirit of the water accompanying him through his long journey into eternity.
