Life and Death Plunder (China Version)
If you are looking for Zhou Xu's movie. Don't miss this title. Probably the most popular actress in China, Zhou Xun has just participated in another award-winning film! Chinese fifth generation director Li Shaohong adapts a controversial short story by An Dun to make Life and Death Plunder (a.k.a. Stolen Life). She hopes to give a piece of sharp advice to all women who are indulged in love, showing them how dangerous that can be. Facing comments on the film's gloominess, Li Shaohong defends that the movie needs such a tone to really create an impact on the audience. Zhou Xun successfully brings out the desperation of a woman being plundered of her everything just because of blindly falling in love with the wrong guy. The superb story-telling won the film the Best Narrative Feature in the 4th Tribeca Film Festival in 2005.
Zhou Xun plays a quaint young girl Yan'ni who seems to have a dim future. But things start to change when her admittance into a university sparks her hope. On her first day at college, she runs into Muyu, a very attractive truck driver. Soon they fall in love with each other. Yan'ni feels that she is a fortunate one for receiving good education and living with a man she loves. Little does she know that Muyu is trying to deceive her?
