Following its North American premiere at the New York Asian Film Festival, the Chinese critical and box office hit DEAR YOU is set for a US and Canadian theatrical release on September 4 from leading international and indie film distributor Well Go USA Entertainment. A multi-generational story of love and loyalty, DEAR YOU is directed by Lan Hongchun and stars early-career actors Li Sitong, Wang Yantong, Wu Shaoqing, Zheng Runqi, and Wang Xiaohui.
A debt-ridden grandson travels to Thailand to find the grandfather he believes abandoned their family, hoping the man behind years of qiaopi letters and remittances can help pay his debts. Instead, he uncovers a lifelong act of love and sacrifice. Inspired by overseas Chinese traditions, DEAR YOU has become a breakout success, touching global audiences with its story of family and devotion.
“We’re honored to bring DEAR YOU to North American audiences following its extraordinary success in China,” said Doris Pfardrescher, President and CEO of Well Go USA Entertainment. “Lan Hongchun has crafted a deeply moving story about family, sacrifice, and the enduring power of human kindness that resonates across cultures. We know audiences will be captivated by its emotional honesty and unforgettable performances.”
DEAR YOU was produced by Luo Zhanhong, Xie Ying, Zheng Xuanxuan, Lin Guoming with a screenplay by director Lan Hongchun in collaboration with Leng Yang and Xuanxuan Zheng.
