Plot/Synopsis
Martial arts actor Jet Li takes on a rare dramatic role without any action elements in Ocean Heaven, the directorial debut of Xue Xiaolu, who co-wrote and starred in Chen Kaige's Together. As he did in Chen's film, Xue explores the dynamics of a father-son relationship, particularly how a dutiful father struggles to take care of his adult autistic son in the face of death. The film has gathered an impressive behind-the-scenes team, including cinematographer Christopher Doyle (Chungking Express), composer Hisaishi Joe, art director Yee Chung Man (Once Upon a Time in China), and editor William Cheung Suk Ping (In the Mood For Love). A devoted philanthropist and the uncle of an autistic child himself, Jet Li took no salary for his starring role with the hopes that the film will raise awareness for the ten million-plus autism sufferers in China.
Marine theme park technician Xingchang (Jet Li) has been taking care of his autistic son Dafu (Wen Zhang) since the death of his wife (Gao Yuanyuan) 14 years ago. When he's diagnosed with liver cancer, Xingchang is determined to spend what's left of his life training his 21-year-old son to take care of himself and finding him an appropriate institution. Meanwhile, a clown traveling with a circus troupe (Guey Lun Mei, Secret) strikes up a simple friendship with Dafu, and a kind neighbor attempts to start a romantic relationship with Xingchang without knowing about his disease.
