RICE IS LIFE showcases the importance of rice in Asia. The program looks into how the crop first appeared in this part of the world; how and where certain well-known rice dishes like dumplings and sushi get their roots.

Even though it may taste and feel different in different regions, rice is nonetheless embedded in folklore and in lthe egends of the people of Asia.  The series also examines how certain ageless festivals, rituals and beliefs that are based on rice are still practised today.
