Summary
In the movie, Shanghai has been encased in ice, the rescue team explore the area and then find themselves trapped in an ice canyon where they encounter an earthquake, finally escaping inside a transportation truck. The team later find a crashed cargo plane containing another truck which they use to drive to safety. These are the sequences that Pixomondo brought to life in The Wandering Earth, the successful blockbuster hit in early 2019.
