MISTRESS DISPELLER
NYC PREMIERE In China, Mrs. Li thought her personal life was on solid emotional ground, only to discover with a shock that her husband is having an affair with a younger woman. Feeling unmoored, she hires an agency to help save her marriage. The film unfolds like a novel, providing intimate details with remarkable candor; the filmmaker’s conscientious and arduous process of gaining consent from all participants is among the film’s astonishing details. – Jaie Laplante
