Adapted from a real event, the hero’s tenderness is touching.
The story of "Scared Sand" took place in 1937. Qin Jiwei, the general of our army, led a 300-man team against the enemy’s 7,000-man cavalry, and successfully broke through after defending the city for three days. This film is the first film to expose the hard-fought course of the Red Army’s West Route Army. The soldiers persisted in the struggle when the supply was extremely scarce. When they ran out of bullets, they rushed at the enemy with broadswords, and the final outcome was even more tragic. Except for the hero, all the other characters died heroically.
When heroes also have tenderness, the emotional portrayal of each character in the film is in place. When her sister Gui Fang was about to be captured by the enemy, first hero Qin Jiwei resolutely shot and killed the brave Red Army woman warrior in order to make her sister not be insulted. Gui Fang’s husband, Lao Han, witnessed the moment of his wife’s sacrifice, and was hit hard. First, he was depressed, and then he killed the prisoners to vent his anger without authorization. He also argued with Qin Jiwei about this matter. The feelings that they had suppressed for a long time in the war were released at this moment, which was really touching.
