Based on a true story, this hard-hitting social drama focuses on child abduction in China—a country where illegal adoption, especially of sons, has become a thriving industry due to the government's one-child policy. When three-year-old Pengpeng disappears from a playground, single dad Tian Wen-jun must join forces with his ex-wife, Lu Xian-juan, to try to find the boy. Finally, after three years of broadcasting desperate pleas on TV, spreading the news on the Internet, even joining a support group for parents of missing children, they succeed. But that's not the end of the story. Raised by a woman who insists, persuasively, that she didn't steal him, Pengpeng no longer knows his parents; he doesn't remember the nursery rhymes that used to delight him and doesn't even speak Mandarin anymore. In examining the murky aftermath of a solved kidnapping, director Peter Ho-Sun Chan (Comrades: Almost a Love Story) raises profound questions about identity as it pertains not only to the nature-nurture debate but also to our codes of morality.
