Stolen Life

If I have time, I will rewrite this ...
But as of now, this is my conclusion 


Conclusion
I also highly recommend this film. I thought it has a rather well written script. The beginning grips, as it hints at the unknown past, and the known future -- we are eager to know what has happened and what will happen. Despite the possibility that we may have heard of similar accounts before, the director/script writer/cast has done an excellent job in making us feel for the characters, along with a few unexpected scenes. In essence, I thought the film gets more and more compelling.


PS:
Actually, this film is 1 out of 10 stories in a made for TV film (also docudrama). The cast is all amazing, and the budget is huge. As some of the stories were so compelling, they were subsequently released on the big screen (at times using another film title). That is why the original Chinese title "Life and Death Plunder" is being replaced with "Stolen Life"

The stories were based on the book by An Dun, who wrote it based on actual accounts of real people. 

Of the 10 stories, I have also watched another (I will try to complete all 10, but time is not on my side). The other film I have watched is entitled "We" (Wo Men). Again, I think the original title was "Brothers" (Xiong Di).
