Let’s get married, while we’re still alive.

Zhang Ziyi and Aaron Kwok are a doomed couple in Love for Life, the third directorial feature from internationally renowned Chinese cinematographer Gu Changwei (Peacock, And the Spring Comes). Christopher Doyle takes Gu’s place behind the camera to capture the lead pair sans their superstar glamor, most notably for Kwok as he goes all out to play an earthy country bumpkin. The heartfelt romance drama tackles the controversial issue of AIDS patients in rural China contracting the HIV virus via contaminated blood transfusion. Initially titled Till Death Do Us Part, the tragic love story co-stars Jiang Wenli (Farewell My Concubine), Pu Cunxin (Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon), and Wang Baoqiang (Mr. Tree), and features several real AIDS patients in supporting roles and big-name directors in cameos. Zhao Liang’s documentary film Together was made as a companion piece to Gu’s intense dramatic effort, both aimed at fighting the society’s prejudice against the HIV-infected and increasing public awareness of the disease.

Set in a remote village in Mainland China during the 1990s, Love for Life centers on villager Deyi (Aaron Kwok), who used to lead a simple, harmonious life with his family. But his selfish elder brother Qiquan (Pu Cunxin), desperate to escape poverty, deals in the black market blood trade and persuades the villagers to sell their blood. An infectious and incurable “fever” epidemic soon breaks out, and the once peaceful village becomes plagued by fear, hatred, and suspicion. Driven by guilt, Qiquan’s father Lao Zhuzhu rounds up the afflicted – Deyi included – and accommodates them in the deserted school as a temporary home. In that isolated community where conflicts and despair come unchecked, Deyi finds renewed passion for life when he meets fellow outcast Qinqin (Zhang Ziyi), the forsaken wife of his cousin. Fueled by mutual pity, the two tortured souls seek solace in each other, and decide to take their last chance at happiness while their days are numbered.
