As a ballerina, a transsexual and owner of China's only independent dance company, Jin Xing has needed extraordinary courage to battle the communist system.
AT 19, he was a colonel in the world's largest military force. At 28, he became she - and China's first officially recognised post-operative transsexual. Now, at 42, Jin Xing runs the country's only independent dance company. Her choreography is in demand year-round across the globe, but she still calls Shanghai home.
