Only The River Flows
The film, based on Yu Hua’s novel Mistakes By The River, follows a chief of police as he investigates a series of murders in a riverside town in rural China in the 1990s. Though an arrest is made quickly, clues push the policeman to delve deeper into the hidden behaviour of the locals and piece together the truth.
The film was selected to compete in the Un Certain Regard section of 76th Cannes Film Festival.
