138 min | NR
A story of epic revenge based on the Chinese opera Orphan of Zhao, SACRIFICE is set during the Yuan Dynasty and focuses on a power hungry general who wipes out his rival along with his entire family, save for one newborn. The infant is protected by the doctor who delivered him and raises him as his own, hoping to mold him into his own instrument of retribution. Directed by celebrated international filmmaker and Palme d’Or winner Chen Kiage (FAREWELL MY CONCUBINE, THE PROMISE), SACRIFICE is riveting and visually stunning epic.
