Women from the Lake of Scented Souls (1993)

1993 · 105 min · Drama

If money can't buy happiness, can it at least buy control over others? Xiang is hard-working, running a small sesame oil business. Her husband is lazy and drinks; her son is blood simple. When Japanese investors provide capital to expand Xiang's business, she has the wealth to raise her social standing and buy a wife for her son, Dunzi. When money and a forceful personality fail to bend others to her will, including daughter-in-law Huanhuan, Xiang must find another way to tranquillity.

Directed by Xie Fei. Starring Siqin Gaowa, Wu Yujuan, Chen Baoguo, Lei Kesheng and Hu Xiaoguang.
