Box Office & Ticket Information

The narrative of CHERRIES revolves around the eponymous main character, a mentally handicapped woman married to a lame farmer in Yunnan in the early 1980s. Cherry longs to have a child, and when she stumbles upon an abandoned baby girl one night, her dream seems to have come true. Her husband, however, is not so enthralled and quickly finds himself locked out of Cherry's affections. This beautifully shot film effectively draws viewers into a haunting, emotionally complex story from a side of Chinese life most of us only ever glimpse through a passing bus window.
