China Circus 1: Elites

Synopsis:
Join the young and talented recruits of China's Wuqiao School of Acrobatic Arts as they push themselves to extremes trying to achieve that perfect performance - with dreams of making it as a professional elite acrobat. The Wuqiao school is home to around 200 students, all of whom board at the school. Six years of hard work lies ahead for new entrants before they graduate. Some may not make it - the tough training and life away from home can be very difficult for some children, but others thrive in the demanding environment.
