From China, he is Xuyang, the tenth child of the documentary

Susu´s husband Moon, (Susu a former Juan Carlos´ student and our host in Beijing), made a call to his cousin in Xi'an to confirm that Xuyang, his nephew, was 12 years old, what immediately made him the tenth child of the documentary and the representative of China.

A 12-hour train from Beijing to Xi'an (the ancient Chinese capital), took us to meet Xuyang. We knew little of him, only that measured 1.71mts and liked geography, but when we met him we were surprised to see that his face began to grow a puberty mustache but still boyish face.
Although we could not communicate much with him nor with his parents due to the language differences, the warmth and hospitality extended to us made us feel privileged. Vast and delicious meals that graced our conversations, translated by Susu, made us closer and closer to a middle class family in China and a child of a profound thought, which is been reflected in the answers that he gives in the documentary.
