Gong Li turns in a stellar performance playing an innocent who simply wants people to do what is right as she manages to bring a human dimension into a world where it seems as though just about everyone is watching a clock and looking for a way to pass the buck.
Li plays Qiu Ju, an average woman in a rural village whose life is unexceptional until her husband is physically attacked by the village elder. When the elder refuses to apologize, Qiu Ju decides to seek legal action with the help of a local magistrate.
Soon, her quest for simple justice balloons into a series of frustrating battles with a complicated and unproductive bureaucracy.
Rated PG.
