Liu Gao, caught up in the war
A national epic tempered by ice and fire! "Changjin Lake" is set on an extremely cold battlefield of minus 40 degrees Celsius. Volunteer soldiers fight against the torrent of steel with their flesh and blood, and the "Ice Sculpture Company" solidified on the snowfield becomes a monument of faith. And "Symphony" composes a movement of humanity amidst the artillery fire of the Fifth Battle, with scouts and field nurses playing a vibrato that transcends hatred in the gap between life and death. When the melody of "Arirang" sounded, Yimeng girl Zhao Yulan melted the iron bars of the prisoner of war camp with her kindness, allowing American soldier Pete Luther to find his soul in the East. This century-long watch across the Pacific interprets the most stubborn reconciliation on the ruins of war.
Han Mengze's "Angry Steel" brings us face to face with the most primitive tremors of the battlefield: the bloody road of a company from the expedition to the death of all members of the company, using the oath of "the last man will fight to the death and never retreat", forging the backbone of the nation to stand up. Yuan Ling continues his gaze on marginalized lives in "My Pi Village Brothers and Sisters", allowing workers to make their voices heard in the palace of literature.
These works cut through the historical faults with cold brush strokes, making frozen suicide notes, blood-stained orders, and love letters in the trenches become stars that illuminate the national spiritual universe.
