Allegorical film features stunning 3D visuals

THE 3D epic film starring Chinese stars Feng Shaofeng and Dou Xiao is based on a popular autobiographical novel by Jiang Rong. It is slated for release on February 19.

It follows a student sent from Beijing in 1969 to Inner Mongolia to teach shepherds. There he learns about the shepherds and the bond they share with the wolves there. The wolves are thought to be a metaphor for human society.

Directed by Oscar-winning French filmmaker Jean-Jacques Annaud, the film features stunning visual effects. Annaud, famous for “The Bear” in 1988 and “L’amant” in 1992, brought on “Avatar” and “Titanic” composer James Horner to create the score. Filming was done in Inner Mongolia.
