De la sección oficial del Festival, me llama la atención una película que se llama Addicted to Love del director Chino "Liu Hao". Se trata de un señor mayor que se encuentra por casualidad a su primer amor. Ellos se empiezan a reunir en secreto. Cuando él se entera de que ella tiene Alzheimer, él empieza a jugar a hacer ejercicios mentales con ella.
El director dice:
Unlike younger generations who still have many choices about their lives, the elderly people are not here to live but existing. I hope Addicted To Love will shed a transient gleam of hope to elderly people and to break this so called "normal phenomena" in our society, making the unimaginable become existence so that the elderly people can live with dignity in the last stage of their lives.
I hope Addicted To Love can be compared to the matured sensibility of autumn – in spite of the withered fallen leaves, it is still breathtakingly beautiful.
