From the Wall to the Water

<p>In 2015 footloose lawyer and screenwriter William Han set out to travel the ancient Silk Road from China to Europe following the footsteps of a Chinese explorer who tried to make contact with the Roman Empire in the first century AD. Born in Taiwan raised in New Zealand and freshly liberated from a New York law firm he relied largely on a big smile and a firm handshake on a voyage through both space and timeas from northwest China through Central Asia and Afghanistan to Iran. From the Wall to the Water is a personal odyssey as well as a snapshot of an unstable and little known part of the world from a unique perspective linking the ancient past to the uncertain present and generating observations and meditations on the tides of history and our place within it. </p>
