In pre-production right now is Life For Mile, a dramatized movie based on real facts about the Chinese and Indian (First Nations) workers in the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway that united Canada as a nation in the 1880s.

Back then, thousands of Chinese laborers were brought in from China to help build this transcontinental railroad. Because the task was dangerous and safety hazards were many, the fatality of these Chinese workers was very high. Often, it was a Chinese that was assigned the task of placing dynamites deep inside the mountain to blow up rocks in order to dig through the tunnel. Many Chinese go in either didn’t come out or their lifeless bodies were carried out for a hasty burial. It was said that for each mile of railway that was constructed, one Chinese life was sacrificed. Hence the title of the movie ‘Life For Mile’.

Life For Mile is executive produced by well-known Hollywood actor Stephen Chang who will also play a leading role in the movie. He is also a grandmaster in Chinese Kung Fu. You might remember him as VC Commander in Sylvester Stallone’s Rambo, First Blood. Stephen also starred in such movies as Double Happiness (1994 – 2 Genies ), International Rescue ( 1990 Hit ) Icarus (2010) and TV series such as The X-Files, Twilight Zone, Kung Fu – TLC ( 1996 Warner Bros.) Psych (2011), The Evidence (2006) and dozens of other productions.

Currently, the ‘Life For Mile’ production is generating quite a bit of interest from various parties including the First Nations, Telefilm Canada and local and international investors.
