Synopsis
In October 1984, a group of military cadets prepare for an elaborate parade ceremony to be held on China's 35th annual National Day. The soldiers, both young and old, initially find themselves rebelling against their tyrannical sergeant, who puts them through a punishing series of drills. In time, the soldiers come to respect their trainer, whose seemingly arbitrary exercises and demanding attitude slowly mold the unit into a disciplined group of men.
