FLOWERS OF WAR

WIDESCREEN DIGITAL THEATER SYSTEM SUBTITLED

From internationally celebrated director Zhang Yimou (Ju Dou, Raise the Red Lantern, Hero, House of Flying Daggers) comes a story of love and war. The dangerous streets of Nanjing throw together a group of opposites - a flock of shell-shocked schoolchildren, a dozen seductive courtesans, and a renegade American (Academy Award winner Christian Bale, the Fighter, the Dark Knight) posing as a priest to save his own skin, or so he thinks - all seeking safety behind a walled cathedral. Trapped by marauding soldiers, over the next few days the prejudices and divides between them will fall away as they unite around a last-ditch plan to protect the children from impending catastrophe.
