What happens
Restless is a 1998 romantic film directed and co-written by Jule Gilfillan, starring Catherine Kellner, David Wu, Chen Shiang-chyi and Geng Le. An American–Chinese co-production, the film was almost entirely shot and filmed in Beijing and follows two Americans who find love in China. It was screened at multiple film festivals in 1998 and 1999 before receiving a limited theatrical release in the United States in 2000 and a DVD release on December 4, 2001. Restless was criticized for its clichéd and undelivered storylines, but praised for its scenery. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
