🎬 Movie

Red Army commander Huang Kegong, a celebrated veteran of the Long March, finds himself at the center of a seismic trial in wartime Yan'an, 1937. Accused of murdering a young revolutionary student, he faces an unprecedented tribunal where more than one man's fate hangs in the balance—the very legal principles of the nascent Communist power are on trial. Against the backdrop of the Japanese invasion, the proceeding forces the Party's fledgling judiciary to confront an agonizing choice between revolutionary expediency and the rule of law. Personal merit clashes with the demand for equality before the court in a moment where every verdict writes history.
