The CCTV crew spent four days with DDA’s Rose Oliver, covering her life and work in Shanghai, filmed her teaching English classes at Shanghai University, and featured DDA community taiji classes and their children’s Tongbei classes, in addition to filming an in-depth interview with Rose at her home.
