76 Days Additional Details Runtime: Rating: Release Year: 2020 Director: Weixi Chen, Hao Wu On January 23rd, 2020, China locked down Wuhan, a city of 11 million, to combat the emerging COVID-19 outbreak. Set deep inside the frontlines of the crisis in four hospitals, 76 Days tells indelible human stories at the center of this pandemic from a woman begging in vain to bid a final farewell to her father, a grandpa with dementia searching for his way home, a couple anxious to meet their newborn, to a nurse determined to return personal items to families of the deceased. These raw and intimate stories bear witness to the death and rebirth of a city under a 76-day lockdown, and to the human resilience that persists in times of profound tragedy. "76 Days is unvarnished and raw, a first draft of a history that's still being written." - The Atlantic "The film's value to future generations is self-evident, but it has just as much to show us in the here and now about the history we're making alone and together." - indieWire "The camerawork and editing are extraordinary in their immediacy and their sensitivity to chaos, exhaustion and resilience - often all at once." - Hollywood Reporter Share About Milwaukee Film Milwaukee Film is a nonprofit arts organization dedicated to entertaining, educating, and engaging our community through cinematic experiences.
