’The Army’ is about a young soldier serving in the first emperor of china’s personal army, which then is made into the famous terracotta warriors. He befriends the daughter of one of the many sculptors that are hired for this momentous task, and falls for her, while her father, a former soldier and enemy to the new empire, does not approve.
As the story of the young soldier’s love develops, we see the lives, hopes and dreams of the warriors that still live, as eternal stone, in a cave mostly standing, some fallen, some broken and all of them, long forgotten.

This movie is primarily a look on the time and events that involve the creation of the Stone Guards and who they might have been.
The movie starts with the discovery of the warriors in our times, from where it transitions into the times of the Han dynasty. It becomes a close up into the life of a few among the 6000 that served one of the most influential men in Chinese history, Qin Shihuangdi, the first Emperor of China; usually known for conquest, genius and his growing madness. Rich on history and beautiful imagery.
