Confucius on Blu-ray/DVD

Confucius is coming to Blu-ray and DVD on March 11, 2010.

Set in the chaotic and decadent world of the warring states during the Spring and Autumn Period, the film focuses on the turbulent later years of Confucius's life, specifically from his appointment to political office at 51 to his death at 73, and all the dramatic stories in between.

Confucius was born in the kingdom of Lu and rose to serve in its government. He skillfully engineered a peace with aggressive neighboring states and brought three dominant local clans under control. But his brilliance as a thinker and tactician was not enough to save him from being exiled by his political enemies, and he spent many years wandering and teaching a band of loyal disciples.

Directed by Hu Mei, starring Chow Yun Fatt, Zhou Xun, Lu Yi, Qiao Zhen Yu, Kai Li, Yao Lu, Ma Jing Wu.
