The much awaited psych-thriller "Red Amnesia" (闖入者) will hit cinemas across China Today.

The film is directed by famous writer turned director Wang Xiaoshuai

Stage veteran Lv Zhong (吕中), who plays the lead role has already won the best actress award at the Asia Pacific Screen Awards late last year for her performance in the movie.

Lv Zhong says it was challenging to play the role of a stubborn elderly widow with a split personality.

"She is busy, hard-working, and takes care of her sons' daily life. She regularly visits her elder son's flat to cook meals and does the same with her younger son. She's been keeping her two sons at the center of all her life. And as she's young, she had inflicted harm on others forgetting any consideration of interests beyond her own kids'".

Popular mainland singer and songwriter Laure Shang Wenjie has penned the theme song for the movie.
