The Great Wall

2016 | 103 min | K-12 | action, adventure, fantasy, thriller

Warriors Garin and Tovar are on their way to the east in search of gunpowder, which they plan to sell to European kings. On their way, however, they become prisoners of the soldiers guarding the huge Great Wall of China. The wall was built to protect the Chinese people, but the enemy is not the Mongols but something much more dangerous.

The battle between the Empire and the mythical monsters is about to begin, and inspired by Commander Lin Mei, Garin decides to join the fight.

Directed by Yimou Zhang. As actors, e.g. Matt Damon, Tian Jing and Willem Dafoe.

For media educator

Includes plot reveals! The Great Wall is a fantasy adventure that gives the most impressive construction project in world history, the Great Wall of China, a backstory unlike any in the history books. The Lord of the Rings-style battle scenes on the wall against mystical creatures are spectacular and their abundant violence is typical of a fantasy film and very detached from the real world.
