Summary |
"Built with the blood and sweat of millions of its citizens, this is the human story behind the greatest construction project of all time - a structure 3,000 miles long, which used 100 million tons of earth, and 15 billion bricks - the equivalent of 15 Great Pyramids. It was created by one man, the great General Qi, inspired to protect his nation after the Mongols had invaded and reached the Forbidden City. This compelling film, featuring a cast of thousands and stunning computer generated images, dramatises events surrounding the construction of the wall through the eyes of the General, a construction worker, and one of the powerbrokers involved in the politics of the Great Wall." -- website |
