The Long March
2016
The autumn wind blew bleakly, and the wild geese cried out in the chill. On October 16, 1934, the usually deserted wharf on the Yudu River in Jiangxi suddenly bustled with activity. Columns of Red Army soldiers arrived with hurried footsteps, assembling at the site. Entrusted by Zhou Enlai, an ailing Mao Zedong directed the construction of a bridge while lying on a stretcher; the floating bridge was constructed entirely from door planks donated by the local civilians. Over 800 boats from across Yudu County were also gathered at the riverbank. To avoid detection by the enemy, the Red Army assembled the floating bridges to cross the river each night and dismantled them the following dawn. Neither the soldiers nor the officers knew their destination, let alone considered when they might counterattack or rejoin other forces; they simply moved with the troops. And so, the Long March began. (Translated from the Chinese language overview on TMDB)Math and the Rise of Civilization

Miami Kingpins
2025
Miami Kingpins is a gripping documentary series that dives into the untold true story of three of Miami’s most powerful and feared drug lords. Set against the backdrop of the 1980s and 1990s — when Miami became a global epicenter for narcotics and street empires — this series explores the rise, reign, and inevitable fall of men who built their kingdoms outside the law but inside the hearts and memories of the city. Through never-before-seen interviews, archival footage, and raw storytelling, Miami Kingpins exposes the inner workings of a lifestyle driven by money, loyalty, betrayal, and survival. But beyond the headlines and hustles, it also reveals the human stories — the families, the communities, and the cultural legacy that still lingers in Miami today and ultimately impacted pop culture.Murder Book
