MISTRESS DISPELLER

MISTRESS DISPELLER

In China, Mrs. Li thought her personal life was on solid emotional ground, only to discover that her husband was having an affair with a younger woman. Unmoored, she hires an agency to help save her marriage without her husband’s knowledge. Unfolding like a novel, Mistress Dispeller provides intimate details with remarkable candor; the filmmaker’s conscientious and arduous process of gaining consent from all participants is among the film’s astonishing details.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director/producer/cinematographer Elizabeth Lo and producer Emma D. Miller.

All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
