The big screen tear-jerker, based on the devastated earthquake that jolted north China's city of Tangshan in 1976, is a highly anticipated blockbuster for the summer season.
"Aftershock" centers on the devastation that happened in just 23 seconds. It follows the catastrophe as a means to capture the resilience of the city and its people over the past years. In those very 23 seconds, Tangshan was shaken to a huge ruin. A young mother of two is forced to give up her baby girl to save her son. And ever since, that cruel decision changed the whole family's destiny.
