Watch A Great Master of Chinese Medicine

Li Zhihua, a physician practicing in rural Henan province during the Mao era, gains great fame when his inexpensive herbal remedy cures a plague of poliomyelitis. But his medical skills, passed down through the generations, cannot protect his family from the political chaos of the Cultural Revolution. Nor are they enough to treat the flood of impoverished patients at his doorstep. As China struggles to modernize, Li's personal battles to train young doctors and preserve the teachings of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) will save the lives of millions.

A Great Master of Chinese Medicine is a 2012 family movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 31 minutes.
