Forgetting to Know You 忘了去懂你 [C-Movie] (2014)

Baisha township, near Chongqing, central China, the present day, summer. Chen Xuesong (Tao Hong) and Cai Weihang (Guo Xiaodong) have been married for seven years and have a young daughter, Yuanyuan (Zhang Wan). She runs a small general provisions shop and he works at a furniture factory that is in financial difficulties and owes its staff back wages. Xuesong, who is originally from the northeast, has never got on with her husband’s family, including his mother and younger sister, and spends her days at the shop, where a young taxi-driver, Wu Junyan (Nick Wang), drops by regularly for change and a chat. Weihang tries to save the factory by discussing a deal with an old schoolfriend, Lin. Their marriage is now marked by constant small rows and mutual suspicions, though they are both devoted to their daughter. One day, on the internet, Weihang comes across a picture of Xuesong and her former boyfriend, Yang Jiucheng (Zhang Yibai), now a property tycoon. He takes out his frustrations by sexually assaulting her. He later regrets his action but doesn’t like her apparent growing friendship with the taxi-driver. While Weihang tries to arrange a staff buy-out of the furniture factory, Xuesong decides to visit Jiucheng on her own initiative.
