Addicted to Love

Old Pop, a retired Beijing factory worker, likes going to the market with his old colleague, Lao Chang. One day, he recognizes a face he had been unable to forget: his first love, Li Ying. In spite of their children’s reluctance, the two start meeting in secret. Discovering that Li Ying has Alzheimer, Old Pop plays little games with her to exercise her mind. As in his award-winning Chen Mo and Meiting (2002), Liu Hao uses non-professional actors and treats an unusual love affair with a poetic and humorous touch.
