About Eight Sons
In the southern Jiangxi region in the 1930s, in this place known as the "red cradle" of the Chinese revolution, there was a mother who sent her eight sons to the Red Army and rushed to the front lines of the battlefield. But the war was ruthless, and six of the brothers died one after another, leaving only the eldest brother Yang Daniu and the youngest child full of cubs.
Directed by Gao Xixi, Eight Sons leans on a strong ensemble — Liu Duanduan, Shao Bing, Yue Hong — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2019.
