When was "Crossing the Kanto" filmed?
A trip to the development of Guandong block
The mother Wen Niangniang failed to get married with her three sons, only to learn that her husband Zhu Kaishan, who had been away from home for four years, was executed because of the failure of the Boxer Rebellion. Desperate Wen Niang wanted to die, but learned that she was waiting for the news of reuniting with her youngest son in Kanto, so she decided to take her three sons to see it.
Xianer, who wanted to be with her, secretly left home despite the opposition of her family, but passed by Zhu's family. The Zhu family came to Longkou Port in Shandong Province and went to Kanto by water. Unexpectedly, a large number of refugees are stranded, hungry and cold, malaria is rampant, and life and death are uncertain. The Zhu family finally boarded the last batch of ships, but found the fresh children who chased them all the way.
In desperation, the eldest son jumped into the sea and went ashore, and Xianer went to Kanto by land. Wen's mother took her second son and third son Zhu Chuanjie to Guandong by boat, and the family was separated from each other.
