Veteran actress Tian Hairong stunned the judging panel of the 12th Macau International Movie Festival, which ended this week, with her depiction of a strong-willed woman in “Shallow” to win the Best Supporting Actress award. According to director Tang Xiaobai, “Shallow” is a heart-warming film about family bonds and dreams.

Tian plays a woman who takes care of her sister’s child while her sister followed a boxing career. The film is due for release in April or May. Tian said she was grateful for the love she receives from her family and friends, especially in 2020, a difficult year for many people. The Best Actor award of the festival went to Zhang Yi for his portrayal of a soldier in “Sacrifice.” Zhong Chuxi received the Best Actress award for her performance in “August Never Ends,” a romantic tale.
