Summary
When a drunken passenger causes Lao Shi to swerve and hit a motorcyclist, the driver stops to help the injured man. He drives the victim to the hospital, checks him in and finds himself liable for the man's medical bills. Lao Shi finds himself plunged into a Kafkaesque nightmare where no good deed goes unpunished. Winner of Best First Canadian Feature at the **Toronto International Film Festival** and an International Forum of New Cinema Selection at the **Berlin International Film Festival**. *"Johnny Ma makes a remarkably mature debut, exposing with stunning clarity the infuriating red tape and flawed logic of China's system regarding criminal responsibility and insurance policies.."* - Maggie Lee, ***Variety***
