The Unseen Sister

All the credit goes to Liying Zhao and Zhilei Xin. I like the scene where they hugged each other. For a moment I forgot that I was watching a movie, the acting was so good, especially, Liying Zhao. She was so into that character and I could feel it. When Qiao Yan(Liying Zhao) was anxious. I worried for her. And when Qiao Yan fought against unfairness and oppression. I could feel Liying Zhao's powerful presence.

It's an interesting story, for example, the sister relationship was attractive. Each scene was beautiful and impressive. When it combined together, the whole storyline was just Ok. However, I highly recommend it.

I never think that china movie could be good in that way. This film remind me so much about Decision to leave last year. The color and frame of this film's cinematography is simply beautiful and meanful. In my opinion, i very like the sceen that Xiao Qiao get to Great Wall with Da Qiao. In China, the image of Great Wall was printed in the ID card. So, when they came to this place, they feel so helpless, powerless, cause they are yearning for their identification. And i think this is why people setting the film in winter, because in Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao's mind, their life were frozen on the day that event happened. Maybe the end will not be satisfied for some people, but for me, it was reasonable.

This movie beautifully captures the complexities of modern relationships and personal growth. Yan, the main character, is so relatable, and her journey through life's challenges is both heartfelt and inspiring. It unfolds new layers of Yan's personality, and the supporting characters add warmth and charm, making her world feel authentic and rich. The storytelling is refreshing, the cinematography is clean and engaging, and the dialogue feels real-nothing too exaggerated or predictable. Overall, this movie is a wonderful watch for anyone who enjoys an honest look at life, love, and self-discovery. Highly recommended!

I was extremely impressed by Zhao Liying's acting. Her performance was raw and emotionally charged. She had great chemistry with her co-star, and her subtle body language really added depth to the character. As well as, Xin Zhilei. Their body language and movement aligned with the characters.

My tears kept filling when I saw two sisters hugging.

This film sparks deep contemplation and discussion. It engages with complex ideas and themes. The whole storyline is simple and flat, but each scene is visually stunning. I like these long takes, but each scene lacks some timely and logical connection between them.

I like this kind of art film even though it makes me depressed. But if you are looking for something entertaining, this film may not be suitable for you.

Qiao Yan and her sister are not defined by a generalized group of characteristics. They both display prominent aspects of their personalities, whether they are considered positive strengths or negative weaknesses. Even though Qiao Yan is in the glamorous entertainment industry, she is constantly weighed down by fear and pressure. Her sister, who is pregnant faces a lot of difficulties in life, but she has a strong desire to survive. They try to survive in a difficult living environment and they try to break free from the chains of fate.

Liying and Zhilei's acting are amazing. The story is a little dry, but it's okay to watch.
