Description

Aftershock

The most successful Chinese movie ever, with digital effects by Weta Workshop.

This dramatic account of the devastating earthquake that hit the industrial city of Tangshan in northern China in 1976, causing some 240,0000 people to perish, is more than just another disaster movie. Set during one of the most dramatic political periods in Communist China, Aftershock is – at its heart – a searing drama about a family ripped apart, both physically and emotionally, by the terrifying natural disaster.

Over a 30 year period – as the city of Tangshan slowly rises from the ruins to become an ultra-modern city – the family at the heart of this story are also trying to rebuild their lives. But it is only through forgiveness that they find peace.

Critic Reviews:

  • " Delivers what it promises, and at times more so. Xiaogang Feng manages to tell a touching story, whilst also expanding it to incorporate a larger tale of China and its people's survival through hardship. " – Sabina Pasaniuc
  • " It's schlock, but on such a grand scale that it's quite fun to allow yourself to be carried along on its tsunami of emotion. " – Christopher To­okey
  • " Perfect hokum for those who don't mind having their heart strings strummed like a banjo. " – David Jenkins
