It’s too early in the morning for me to cry but I did. This is going to be a tear-jerker once it comes out. Based on a true story, the film tackles a sensitive and harrowing subject for parents world-wide – child abduction. Vicki Zhao plays a country mom, who is in a discording relationship with her husband. They remain together for the sake of their son. As they search for their missing child across unfamiliar land, the two experience bottomless pain, relying on themselves and other parents in the same unfortunate situation.

This must be a tough project for our Vicki, as she’s a mother of a beautiful 4-year old daughter.
