Embarcadero Center Cinema says…

Based on a true story, The Children of Huang Shi follows a group of orphaned children fleeing war-torn China in the wake of the 1930s Japanese invasion. Jonathan Rhys Meyers plays British reporter George Hogg, who leads the group through the mountains to safety. With a strong ensemble cast that includes Radha Mitchell, Michelle Yeoh, and Chow Yun-Fat, the film — and its tale of a heroic everyman who rises to the occasion to save innocents — maintains a heartwarming and inspiring tone in the vein of Schindler's List and Hotel Rwanda.
