The literal translation of the title of this movie is: The Human's Spring.
I must admit that I did not expect too much when I first started, because the movie is about the early life of Nie Er, the composer who wrote Chinese national anthem. Obviously, you cannot blame me for have the first impression of a negative image about this movie, for being just another piece of commie political propaganda.
However, as the story played out, I was quite surprised that this movie was by no means a usual commie political propaganda, because it provided an accurate picture of the early era of Nie Er, the experience that was not only acknowledged by China, but also by others who are ardent anti-communists. This movie thus provides a neutral stand, without obvious political bias, something that is rather rare in Chinese films, and for this reason, I give it 7 of out 10.
