The Order

PREMIERE DESIGNATION
World 

SYNOPSIS 
Two soldiers – Liu and Zhao – capture Fei, a young girl stealing bread from their remote outpost. Suddenly, the soldiers receive an order to kill her. The Order witnesses Liu’s transformation from innocence to a murderer, representing the cruel indifference of war. Liu and Zhao are a simulacrum of the Chinese Civil War itself, inheritors of trauma destined for mutual destruction. Much like Fei, the innocents were caught in the midst of it all.
