If you loved Empire of War - Der letzte Widerstand, try Aftershock
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Feng Xiaogang, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Empire of War - Der letzte Widerstand, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Aftershock is
Sophie's Choice, without Sophie. A mother must choose which of her two children to save from a deadly earthquake. The daughter survives, but the family is forever split by the decision. Xu Fan's performance delivers the emotional core.
