This film is historically precious for all of us to comprehend contemporary Chinese history since 1949 when communist party led by chairman Mao got ascended to power. In this film,it's easy for viewers to find notable socialist leaders on the balcony of palace in 1950s.
It’s crazy to see how quickly China was transformed in 10 years!Its one thing to read the fact there was a 20% increase in industry in one year alone during this period,but its another thing seeing it in this film.Sadly the next few years would be hard for China after flooding in the country side and the multiple political struggles until 1968 when the country would stabilize again.Though internal conflicts within the party would continue.
