      [introduction]
      A 3-year-old boy goes missing in the streets of Shenzhen, China. His parents desperately search for him, but fail to locate his whereabouts. Three years later the boy is found in a village far from Shenzhen, but does not remember his biological parents and adores the kidnapper’s wife like a mother, deploring being separated from her. Before long, the kidnapper’s wife decides to go to Shenzhen to find her “dearest child”…. Drawn from an actual incident, Peter CHAN’s “Dearest” is a dramatically moving film that earned positive reviews at the 2014 Venice International Film Festival for its depiction of the complicated relationship between parent and child. The synergy of contemporary Chinese cinema’s finest actors including Vicki ZHAO, who won the best actress award for her portrayal of the kidnapper’s wife at the Hong Kong Film Awards, is also a highlight.
