Concept :

The film "800" is based on the Battle of Songhu in 1937 and tells the story of 400 Chinese National Revolutionary Army soldiers who were ordered to defend the Sihang Warehouse in Shanghai for four days. The film was released in China on August 14, 2020 and in Japan on November 12, 2021. The story of this film unfolds from a group of deserters and is shaped in a group portrait. Watching the film a second time, we extracted the three most impressive episodes from the multiple shots in the film: Protecting the Flag, Crossing the Bridge and White Horse, and simplified them into three visual symbols from this to form a series of posters.

电影《八佰》取材于1937年淞沪会战，讲述了对外号称“八百壮士”的实际400位中国国民革命军奉命留守上海闸北，在四行仓库鏖战四天，直至10月30日才获令撤往英租界的故事。《八佰》于2020年8月14日提前开启国内点映；2021年8月25日宣布于11月12日在日本上映。《八佰》的故事从一群逃兵的身上展开，以群像的方式塑造出“有意味的普通个体”所组成的群体合力。复看二遍，我们从电影《八佰》中的多个镜头中提取出三个印象最深的情节：护旗、过桥与白马，并由此简化为三个视觉符号，组成系列海报。
