Five Guns of Mercy

Posted by Posted by FotoSnips On 7:01 AM





Five Bullets ... None of them had been shot to end people's lives. Where have those bullets gone? Based on a true story, "Gun of Mercy" centers on a veteran prison guard who escorts three inmates through land ravaged by a disastrous flood in southern China.

The story begins as rapidly worsening floods force the evacuation of a city jail. Lao Ma, a grizzled prison guard has been assigned to transport three dangerous convicts to another safer institution. As the plot progresses, Lao Ma and his charges are swept into a swollen river that breaks the riverbanks. Lao Ma manages to rescue them from the van after it gets trapped in the river. When they find the waterlogged country roads to be impassable, they
must trudge through a giant forest.

From then on, the four men with different fates and personalities are forced to face the challenges of being alive together. On the one hand, they take care of and work with each other to survive the flood. On the other hand, the old guard realizes that the men might try to run away. His gun is the only thing that lets him remain in charge. Although Lao has only five rounds of bullets, he never fires them to kill any of the convicts, even when they threaten his own safety.
