Two mega-stars Deng Chao and Eddie Peng were starred in this dramedy. Maggie Lee (Variety) praised the film as being “sprinkled with witty grace notes and crowd-pleasing without being too ingratiating or idiotic.” The Chinese title 乘风破浪 means “Riding the Wind and Breaking the Waves.” In this time-traveling crime film, a son attempts to reconcile with his father while he travels time back to the year 1998, when his estranged father was young. Some fateful events allow him to experience his father’s life in the past.

Sponsored by the Confucius Institute and Lieberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies at U-M, "Electric Shadows: 2017 Contemporary Chinese Film Series" will feature six exciting Chinese films released in recent years.
