Film Description
China's nomination for the 2011 Oscars, Aftershock is based on the Tangshan Earthquake in 1976 that took the lives of 240,000 people, and is a big-budget special effects-laden blockbuster earthquake epic from the director of Assembly and The Banquet.
In the aftermath of the devastating quake, a widowed seamstress must choose which of her brother-and-sister twins will be saved after rescuers find them pinned down by a single concrete block. She chooses her son, Fang Dan, unaware that her daughter has in fact also survived the ordeal. The film then follows the divergent lives of the two siblings from this point until their eventual reunion - in the Sichuan earthquake of 2008.
