The new documentary, In the Footsteps of Marco Polo, supported by Global Education, premieres at Curzon Mayfair

In the Footsteps of Marco Polostarring Stanley and Max Johnson, premiered at the Curzon Mayfair on Wednesday July 3rd.

The documentary follows their road trip in 2023 to the Forbidden City in Beijing, the end of the Silk Road. The 2,500 mile journey took them through some of the most beautiful places on earth.

Stanley said: “The Silk Road took 62 years to complete and was something that Michael and Tim, my two late co-conspirators, would have loved to have been a part of.

I will never forget that I can pick up where I left off more than six decades ago and that I can complete this journey with my son by my side.

But even though this trip meant a lot to me personally, there is a bigger picture. The project provided an opportunity to show the importance of travel, multiculturalism and the English language as a force of unity that transcends borders and connects us all.”

Max Johnson added: “By tracing Marco’s historic journey, we hope that bridges of mutual understanding, cultural exchange and lasting cooperation can and will be built between China and Europe.”

The 90-minute documentary was supported by Global Education (GEDU) and the language program English Path. Mike Summerfield, executive director of English Path, said: “This production is an example of how language can connect cultures and break down barriers. We change lives through education in 12 countries, and we are very proud to support Stanley and Max on their remarkable journey. “

Dale Templar, Managing Director of One Tribe TV, told those in attendance: “At a time when the world is facing many challenges In the Footsteps of Marco Polo a remarkable example of international film collaboration in action.”

His Excellency Zheng Zeguang, Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China to the United Kingdom, expressed satisfaction at the close cooperation between China and the United Kingdom at all levels in the planning and implementation of the project. “This is a truly remarkable initiative,” said Ambassador Zheng, “that deserves everyone’s support. Mr. Stanley Johnson’s journey, like the story of Marco Polo, will help people in the United Kingdom get to know the real China.”
