Diplomats, soldiers and other representatives of a dozen nations fend off the siege of the International Compound in Peking during the 1900 Boxer Rebellion. The disparate interests unite for survival despite competing factions, overwhelming odds, delayed relief and tacit support of the Boxers by the Empress of China and her generals.

Editor's Verdict

❌NO

"The movie '55 Days at Peking' is a historical war drama centered on the 1900 Boxer Rebellion. There is no indication whatsoever that the setting, plot, themes, iconography, or resolution are related to the Christmas season."
