"Addicted to Love"
Our final film from the Official Competition...
Set in modern day China, this film centers around a kindly grandfather reared in the country of the past who is struggling to take care of his disparate sons, daughter, and grandson reared in the China of the present.
Very much a family film, this is also a film about loneliness as he tries to rekindle a relationship with a woman struggling with Alzheimer's.
This film ticks all the boxes that our jury looks for but for me I felt it lacked the emotional component that I yearn for in film.
A very good film nonetheless...
