Prolific film producer Han Sanping (RED CLIFF) takes to the director chair for this epic drama in which the events surrounding the founding of the People Republic of China unspool. From the struggles faced by the Communist Party and its leader Mao Zedong to the civil war which it won, THE FOUNDING OF THE REPUBLIC is a spellbinding recreation of what led to the proclamation of the People Republic in 1949.

Big budget Chinese historical epic examining the climax of the Chinese Civil War in the 1950s. The film opens with the leaders of the two main factions in the civil war, Mao Zedong (Tang Guoqiang) of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and Chiang Kai-shek (Zhang Guoli) of the nationalist party Kuomintang (KMT), agreeing to call a truce. Kai-shek is elected president of a multi-party government, however the peace is short lived. Soon the two sides find themselves at war with each other in a battle for the future of China that affects every citizen of the nation. Each person must choose a side and be ready to fight in defence of their beliefs.
