Death Smells Like Sandalwood

China is experiencing troubled times: German devils are building a railway that disrupts the order of things. Intervention, the outbreaks of popular uprisings in Shandong province, and bureaucratic intrigues provide the backdrop for a poignant story about the tragic fate... of the opera singer and folk hero Sun Bin, who is sentenced to a cruel execution with sandalwood.
A story about feelings and touching relationships, about traditions and memory, about the strength of people and the truth that only reveals itself in distortion. A non-trivial view of human essence, put on trial by the crowd, makes "Death Smells Like Sandalwood" an intellectual masterpiece, telling that even death can become true art.
