A 10-minute excerpt of the original Chinese acrobatic drama A Thousand Years in One Finger was displayed during an event commemorating the 50th anniversary of the discovery and excavation of the iconic Terracotta Warriors in Xi'an, the capital of Northwest China's Shaanxi province, on Sept 8.
Gathering a creative team, including director Fu Zhitao, scriptwriter Lei Linjing and composer Qian Qi, the show tells of a relic restorer who, through a fingerprint on a terracotta statue, travels back to China's Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC).
