Revolution knows no gender, age or era! The film is based on the real Korean independence movement and takes the young revolutionary female martyr Yoo Gwan-soon as its prototype, witnessing a little-known history. During the Japanese occupation, the March 1st Movement broke out in Korea. A 17-year-old girl took to the streets to lead over two million Korean people in their resistance, but was arrested and imprisoned in an underground women's prison, suffering all kinds of humiliation. Not only did she not remain silent like a cicadas in winter, but she also stepped forward to inspire other prisoners to break the silence and move from self-awakening to collective awakening, Shouting the slogan "Long live the independence of Korea" together in prison. The scene in prison under the black-and-white lens was particularly sharp, and everyone expressed their determination with resolute eyes: The high walls of prison can confine the body, but not the free soul. Gao Meixing rose to fame in "The Korean Wave" and gained popularity in "Train to the End of the World". This time, her portrayal of a heroic woman is equally powerful and resolute. In the worst of times, let's pay tribute to this female hero and all the righteous men who sacrificed their lives in the struggle.[Collapse]
