What is The Eight Hundred about? Toggle content

In the midst of the Second Sino-Japanese War, a small group of 452 Chinese soldiers, led by Lieutenant Colonel Xie Jinyuan, were tasked with defending the Sihang Warehouse against an army of 20,000 Japanese troops. This heroic last stand was a symbol of China's determination to resist the invaders and provided a much-needed morale boost for the Chinese people. The battle, which took place in full view of Western powers, also helped to spur support from abroad. Based on real events, The Eight Hundred is a powerful and moving portrayal of courage, sacrifice, and the indomitable human spirit.
