Lost Lotus
Trailer [ov st en]
by Liu Shu
Wu Yu, a recently married, young teacher – outstandingly performed by Canadian-Chinese actress Yan Wensi – lives a quiet daily routine, until one day her mother, a fervent Buddhist believer, dies in a hit-and-run car accident. The shock of the tragedy triggers a desperate search, running on parallel tracks: the search for spiritual solace to ease her pain, which Yu seems to be finding in Buddhist principles, and the search for the culprit, which will lead her to navigate the murky waters of police inefficiency and the power of riches, to an utterly unexpected result.
