Synopsis
The film is based on an ancient Chinese folklore about seven brothers who fought against all odds to save their legendary warrior father. It is an epic tale about the renowned Song Dynasty’s military defense headed by the clan of Yang against a nomadic Northern nation.
Northeast China, early Northern Song dynasty, AD 986. The Khitan army takes its revenge for a past massacre, abducting General Yang Ye (Adam Cheng) and leaving his wife and seven sons to rescue him. Little did they know that they will fall into their enemies’ deadly trap. Led by the first son (Ekin Cheng), the seven – two of whom have never even seen combat – set out with a small band of fighters to face an army of thousands, brave the treacherous Wolf Mountain, face the nemesis of their shared history, and find the way back alive – all to bring their father home. The seven young men possess differing temperaments, characters and are each a master of their own kung fu discipline, but they have to join forces and wits to save their father from enemy forces.
Saving General Yang has a runtime of 102 minutes.
