Name: Yanhong ling xia
Genre: Family
Cast: Dezhang Bai, Jian Shi, Yuan Zhang

The literal translation of the title of this movie is: under the Yan-Hong Ridge.

Although this movie is classified into the family category, there really is not much you can say about it being "family", which itself is a rare case in Chinese film industry.  Usually, the so-called family movies in post-revolutionary China are children's movie, not necessarily liked by the Chinese parents, and for most of time, they don't.  However, this movie cannot even be classified as a children movie by Chinese standard because there really was enough material, instead, it is much more proper to call it a political propaganda.

Mandarin-language cinema across Mainland China, Taiwan, and Singapore explores historical reflection, cultural identity, and personal sacrifice, often expressed through poetic visuals and sweeping narratives. In Mainland China, this takes the form of allegory and large-scale epics that reflect on national history. Taiwan emphasizes intimate modernist realism, generational change, and the search for identity. Singapore contributes stories of migration, multiculturalism, and the negotiation of tradition in a globalized city.

The family genre features stories specifically created to be suitable for a wide range of age groups within a family. Family-oriented content is designed to be enjoyed by both children and adults, often providing entertainment that is wholesome, relatable, and appropriate for all members of a family to watch or experience together.
