Production details: For this German/Australian/Chinese production of Director Roger Spottiswoode and starring in the leading role Jonathan Rhys Meyers we did the final processing of the film. The project was of a Hollywood studio size with an incredible amount of film footage and a large international cast. Jan Hübel and Rolf Mütze were the VFX supervisors and the entire VFX was completed at das werk Düsseldorf. It was a great honor and pleasure to work with Roger Spottiswoode, who stayed with the DOP Xiaoding Zhao for 5 weeks at our facility for the color correction and titel designs. Moritz Peters worked tirelessly for 25 days on the grading, and afterward the film was printed 9 times for world wide distribution.

Description: Inspired by true events, THE CHILDREN OF HUANG SHI is a portrayal both sweeping and intimate of people who, thrown into an unexpected and desperate situation, discover their capacity for love and responsibility. It tells how a young Englishman, George Hogg (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) came to lead sixty orphaned boys on an extraordinary journey of almost a thousand perilous miles across the snow-bound Liu Pan Shan mountains to safety on the edge of the Mongolian desert. And of how, in doing so, he came to understand the true meaning of courage. During his journey, Hogg learns to rely on the support of Chen (Chow Yun Fat), the leader of a Chinese partisan group who becomes his closest friend. He soon finds himself falling in love with Lee (Radha Mitchell), a recklessly brave Australian adventurer whom war has turned into an unsentimental nurse on horseback. Along the way Hogg befriends Madame Wang (Michelle Yeoh), an aristocratic survivor who has also been displaced by war, who helps the young Englishman, his friends and their sixty war orphans make their way across awesome (and rarely filmed) mountain and desert regions to a place of safety near the western end of the Great Wall of China
