The theatrical release of the film, Red Chili, starring actresses Lyu Liping and He Xinyuan as well as actor Wang Naixun,  concluded on Wednesday in a cinema in Beijing's Chaoyang district. The film tells a story about how two left-behind teenagers, a sister and brother, living in a remote village deep in the mountainous areas of Hubei province earn money by selling red chilies during a summer holiday. Their aim is to purchase a smart phone so they can video call with their parents who work in a big city that is far from their home village.

To reach their goal of buying the phone, the teenagers have to first buy the chili harvest from fellow villagers and then trek across hills and rivers, shouldering the heavy load of the chilies, in order to arrive at a bustling market in a town where they can sell the chilies at a higher price.

Being the middlemen is not easy for both of the youngsters. They deal with many troubles during the journey.

Directed by Li Junlin, a graduate from Beijing Film Academy, it shows the youngsters' cleverness and kindness as they deal with adults from different backgrounds.

Li says that he hopes the film can draw the public's attention to the spiritual world of young ones and inspire them to care more about left-behind children.
