Sheep without a shepherd
2021

DVD

A remake of the Indian-Malaysian film Drishyam, this Chinese box-office blockbuster is a Hollywood-esque cat-and-mouse crime thriller. Working family man and self- described movie-geek Li is thrown into a battle of wits with the law after his daughter accidentally kills, and his wife hurriedly buries a fellow student who had sexually molested her. The dead boy's father is an ambitious politician, and his mother is La Wen, a steely eyed, morally corrupt police chief. Utilizing his encyclopedic knowledge of crime cinema, Li concocts a complicated alibi but for La Wen, the crime is personal, and she smells a cover-up. An inventive, twistily-plotted tale of blackmail, murder and justice, with the two families caught up in a deadly game.
