Plot:
Tangshan Earthquake, 28 July 1976.
When a mother is informed by the rescue team that, as
her 7-year old twins are buried under the debris close
to each other, digging one out would result in further
collapse of the wreckage on the other, she is forced
to make the most difficult decision of her life. As
the clock ticked away, she finally ended her struggle
and chose to save the boy, and though heartbroken,
she had no idea her decision was overheard by the daughter.
Deemed as a dead person, the little girl miraculously
survived and was rescued after being buried for days.
Suffering from the emotional shock of the disaster
and the painful memory of her mother’s choice, she
refused to reveal who she was. She was adopted by a
young couple and later moved to the US, but shadowed
by the traumatic experience from her childhood; she
forever remained emotionally closed up.
When the Sichuan earthquake takes over 80,000 lives in 2008, she volunteers to
join the rescue team and returns to her homeland, China.
As she witnesses the tribulations people go through when
a natural disaster takes place, she finally unlocks the
pain she had felt all these years and finds forgiveness…
小灯在唐山大地震发生时才七幅岁,她和弟弟被压咬在了同一块水泥板的两端,母亲费尽千辛万苦在废墟里找到他们,却要面临两个只能救一个的艰难抉择。虽然两个孩子最后都活了下来,序但是他们心灵的创伤却比“余震”更难以驱散……
