All Apologies

It is a subtle study of the way two couples are tragically connected through the death of a child: Yonggui, a construction foreman and his wife, Yun Zhen; Yonggui's former driver Heman who runs a tiny grocery with his wife, Qiaoyu. Convinced that a life is "owed" to him, Yonggui feels entitled to take what he wants. Qiaoyu believes it is her duty to "pay" for her husband's mistake. (ucla.edu)
