1: Beginning
The astonishing pace of industrialisation is presenting China with tough challenges. One of those is how to accommodate half a billion people moving from the land to the cities. One community facing huge changes is White Horse Village, a thousand miles from Beijing. Carrie Gracie travelled there to talk to its residents.

2: Standoff
Carrie Gracie returns to White Horse village, deep in rural China. This programme looks at the impact of China's rush to modernise one community. With evictions on the horizon, families are divided and tensions are rising.

3: Rebirth
Deep in Wuxi County in the west of China, a sleepy village is undergoing radical change - a symbol of China's economic revolution. Five years ago the people of White Horse Village were informed that the motorway was coming and a new high-rise city was to be built on their land. Carrie Gracie, a former BBC Beijing Correspondent, has witnessed the upheaval from the very beginning and returns again to see how the village is being transformed.
