Description:
This film is adapted from Kang Tai's novel The Damp Rock. It tells a true and moving story that took place at the foot of Wudang Mountain in Xintian, Hunan, after the failure of the Autumn Harvest Uprising in 1927.
In the 1930s, beyond the mountains reigned the White Terror, while within them life seemed an idyllic haven. Long Er-Hu, a revolutionary from a family of traditional Chinese physicians, after the failure of the revolution hid himself at a small town at the foot of Wudang Mountain, lame in one crippled leg, practicing medicine in silence. Show more Zhao Gui-Zi, eldest son of the Zhao clan patriarch, and his wife Li Xiao-Qing came disguised as commoners to the Xuandi Hall on Wudang Mountain to pray for a child and make vows, hoping to escape their ill fortune. Unexpectedly, Ma Biao, a militia leader secretly operating as a bandit, saw through their disguise and resolved to kidnap them for ransom. The couple suddenly encountered the bandits and fled in panic, tumbling down a valley and getting injured, and were rescued by chance by Long Er-Hu. Li Xiao-Qing was startled and wary of the suddenly appearing, unrecognizable Er-Hu. Because of the couple, Er-Hu's mountain dwelling at once became a place of attention for Ma Biao's gang. To extort a huge ransom, Ma Biao came to the door to scout, then, taking advantage of Er-Hu's absence, had his men abduct Zhao Gui-Zi. Li Xiao-Qing suspected that Er-Hu had already sunk to being a bandit and had conspired with Ma Biao to harm her husband, and was consumed by misunderstanding and fury.
