5. Nirvana in Fire 2: The Wind Blows in Chang Lin
Country: China
Genre: historical drama
Starring: Liu Haoran and Huang Xiaoming
Recommendation Index: ★★★★
Nirvana in Fire achieved huge success not only in China, but the whole Asia as a whole. Based on Hai Yan's novel with the same name, it tells the tough journey of Lin Shu who under the alias Mei Changsu, enters the capital of Liang to seek justice for a conspiracy that labeled his family as traitors 12 years before.
As the sequel to Nirvana in Fire, the second part goes further in touching upon the theme of patriotism, and the strongly held Chinese conviction that "the state comes before the family".
