The Wild Goose Lake
A gangster on the run sacrifices everything for his family and a woman he meets while on the lam.
From the award-winning Director of Black Coal, Thin Ice – Diao Yinan – comes a stylish Chinese neo-noir thriller “that lives in its vibrant craft and fluid reimagining of scenarios” (Jessica Kiang, Variety).
On the run after accidentally killing a cop during a competition between rival gangs of thieves, gangster Zenong Zhou (Hu Ge, Nirvana in Fire) crosses paths with an innocent-looking woman named Aiai Liu with secrets of her own (Lun-Mei Kwei, Black Coal, Thin Ice). Determined to make sure that the bounty on his head is collected by his wife, Zhou enlists Lui’s aid – but can he trust her, or is the enigmatic young lady a pawn in somebody else’s game?
