The story of the movie Home Coming takes place in an imaginary country in Africa which is going through a war. Two Chinese diplomats(外交官) are asked to carry out a dangerous task: to lead 125 Chinese citizens in the country safely back home.
The movie, starring Zhang Yi and Wang Junkai, not only shows how the two diplomats, one experienced and one new, protect their people with courage and wisdom, but also describes different roles of common people. There are not many cool action scenes in the movie, but it can inspire a strong sense of national pride and confidence.
In fact, Home Coming is based on the real-life stories of China’s evacuation(撤离) of Chinese citizens stuck overseas. In the past few years, the international situation has been complicated(复杂的). Chinese nationals were evacuated from Libya in 2011, Yemen in 2015 and Ukraine last year. Through communication with different parties, Chinese diplomats have worked hard to bring overseas Chinese home safely.
“The real diplomats are also common people; they are fathers, husbands and sons, but they need to get to the frontline on demand. Their bravery and sacrifice(牺牲) deeply moved me,” the movie’s director said in an interview.
A viewer, who spoke highly of the movie, recalled his personal experience 11 years ago of being evacuated safely from a different country because of holding a Chinese passport.“We are the lucky ones because we are well protected and because we have a strong motherland,” he said. “A Chinese passport might not get you anywhere you want, but it can always bring you back home.”
