This a time-lapse, made up of roughly 1.400 photographs, depicting a one-year walk from Beijin to Ürümqi  in 2007/2008. Unlimited growth of hair and beard add liveliness to the resulting video.

The complete distance has been covered on foot. There are scenes on airplanes, trains and boats, which were taken during breaks. The intention was to show movement in the background, including other people in the frame, and make the video more interesting that way. The reference to Teacher Xie in the end is a dedication to a great master of walking.

WildWater is a journey into the mind and soul of whitewater, into the places only river runners can go, places of discovery, solitude and risk. Its a visually stunning feast for the senses, and an expedition into new ideas. We set out to create a new kind of adventure film. One where image, sound and ideas trump all else. We wanted to communicate the essence of the thing - wild places and whitewater- and put its soul on film.
