With pulsating special effects from Weta Workshop, Aftershock is the blockbuster tale of two of most powerful earthquakes to ever hit China. On what was otherwise a still, calm day in 1976 in Tangshan, China the countryside was ripped apart by a devastating earthquake that would take the lives of over 240,000 people.

At the heart of the monstrous disaster a mother must make a heartbreaking decision to save only one of her two children, but when the abandoned child Fang Deng (Jingchu Zhang, Rush Hour 3) miraculously survives she must find a way to rebuild her life alone, far away from Tangshan

Over the next 30 years Tangshan and Fang Deng slowly recover from the tragedy but when another enormous earthquake devastates the area, Fang Deng returns home to face the ruin and find her long lost family and the peace that comes with forgiveness
