Patrick Frater Asia Bureau Chief “Escaping Man,” a Chinese drama feature about a man dragged into a kidnap plot, heads the FilMart slate of Hong Kong-based sales agency Autumn Sun Company.
The protagonist is a man who spent 20 years in jail after being falsely accused of rape. After his release, he intends to confront the woman, but instead falls for her again — to the point that she is able to manipulate him into kidnapping the child for which she is the nanny.
But a simple crime soon spirals out of control. The film is the second feature by Wang Yichun, whose 2015 debut, “What’s in the Darkness,” played in the Berlin and London festivals and unspooled at the Shanghai and Beijing Student Film festivals.
He also won the best director award at the First Youth International Film Festival. “The Escaping Man” stars Chloe Maayan (Fruit Chan’s “Three Husbands”) alongside Jiang Wu and Yan Ni. “The Escaping Man” is in the final stages of post and aiming for a release later this year.
