    One Summer

    YANG Yishu 2014 China Fiction color 93min Mandarin Blu-ray
    LIU Zhen's husband, Xiaoping, was arrested and has been missing for over thirty days. Appearing to be leading a normal life, Zhen projects her anxiety onto her daughter. Everyone comes to help and ventures to guess the reason for Xiaoping's arrest, including Zhen's former suitor, Xin. However, Zhen refuses Xin's help because of an erroneous deal that goes wrong. Finally, Xiaoping returns home, though his return has little to do with everyone's efforts to help him.
