Mistress Dispeller

"After years of cohabitation, when Li discovers that her husband is having an affair with a younger woman, she decides to take action. Despite her disappointment, she would like to save her marriage. So she seeks the help of Wang Zhenxi, a respected "mistress tamer" known for ending extramarital affairs. Her months-long intervention in a love triangle is full of subtle manipulation and humorous situations that are hard to imagine in our environment.

The film offers a remarkable look at the ways in which romantic attachment changes at different stages of life, and explores love, fidelity, and invasions of privacy in the context of modern China. At the same time, it avoids judgment and allows for deeper introspection by all involved, prompting discussion of relationships, culture, and social change."
