With the completion of the game, the movie "Bystander" released the concept poster of "absent dinner": under the night, the family sat together, but each had their own concerns and did not say anything. Who are the "bystanders" in this "mutilated" family feast?
Chinese-style fathers often deal with the intimate relationship between father and son because they are not good at words, clumsily and bluntly. At the same time, children's rebellion and misunderstanding often fill half their lives, and they do not begin to understand their fathers until they become fathers. The movie "Bystander" truly presents the complex and alienated father-son relationship, and reveals the problems brought by family affection to family members with a creative method close to real life, which cannot help but make people re-examine family relations.
With this success, the main cast was also exposed. Chen Kun plays Chen Jiahui, the third brother of the Chen family, in the film, a doctor with a slightly paranoid personality and delicate emotions. In addition, Wang Yanhui and Liu Mintao played the eldest brother and second sister of the Chen family respectively. Three powerful actors performing on the same stage, what kind of sparks will collide? What kind of wonderful father-son story will be staged in "Bystander"?
Not only are the actors outstanding, but the production team of the film is also strong. Director Song Taijia has directed "River", "Arajan Color" and other well-known masterpieces, and won awards at important international film festivals such as Berlin, Vancouver, Locarno, Hong Kong, Shanghai and so on, and this film "Bystander" is the director's first attempt at cross-context shooting. Producer Du Qingchun has cooperated with director Song Taijia many times and has also won awards at domestic and foreign film festivals. The director and producer once again joined forces to escort the quality of the movie "Bystander".
After months of painstaking filming, the film "Bystander" is now in full swing in post-production and is expected to meet a national audience in 2022.
