About Summer is the Coldest Season
Jiahe's mother was murdered unexpectedly two years ago. Because of that, she and her father both lost their focus in life. Jiahe's father failed to find any decent job after retiring from the wrestling team, so he worked for a slaughterhouse as a beef deliverer. This job made Jiahe a victim of public shaming. She became lonely and helpless, and formed her own personal moral code — fighting back in every way possible towards shaming and unfairness.
Directed by Zhou Sun, Summer is the Coldest Season leans on a strong ensemble — Deng Enxi, Yichen LI, Wang Zichen — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2020.
