George Hogg

Inspired by true events, THE CHILDREN OF HUANG SHI is a portrayal both sweeping and intimate of people who, thrown into an unexpected and desperate situation, discover their capacity for love and responsibility. It tells how a young Englishman, George Hogg (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) came to lead sixty orphaned boys on an extraordinary journey of almost a thousand perilous miles across the snow-bound Liu Pan Shan mountains to safety on the edge of the Mongolian desert. And of how, in doing so, he came to understand the true meaning of courage. During his journey, Hogg learns to rely on the support of Chen (Chow Yun Fat), the leader of a Chinese partisan group who becomes his closest friend. He soon finds himself falling in love with Lee (Radha Mitchell), a recklessly brave Australian adventurer whom war has turned into an unsentimental nurse on horseback. Along the way Hogg befriends Madame Wang (Michelle Yeoh), an aristocratic survivor who has also been displaced by war, who helps the young Englishman, his friends and their sixty war orphans make their way across awesome (and rarely filmed) mountain and desert regions to a place of safety near the western end of the Great Wall of China.

It is 48 hours before the Battle of the Somme. There is tension in the air, and 17 year old Bill Macfarlane (Paul Nicholls) – whose eyes the story is seen through - does not have long to prepare himself for what lies ahead and to face up to his responsibilities. As the members of their platoon led by middle-class Lt. Harte (Julian Rhind-Tutt) and gritty Sgt Winter (Daniel Craig) wait in a frontline trench for the big push to commence, Eddie climbs up on a hill to see what the German forces are up to. He's immediately hit by sniper fire, suffering a severe injury, and suddenly the ugly reality of battle has been introduced to the soldiers. While their commanders inform their artillery barrage has destroyed most of the enemy front line, the continued German attacks convince them this may not be the reality.
