บท 500: Four Nominations

After its international premiere at the Sommet International Film Festival, "Strong Yet Broken" received mostly favourable reviews from the world's leading film critics. They praised it for its rawness and realistic depiction of the issues surrounding the topics of disability, depression, and suicide. The film didn't sugarcoat or romanticize these subjects, except perhaps for the love of Guan Jintao's mother for her husband and son.

All of these reviews were published in different languages which gave everyone involved in the film a dream-like feeling of amazed disbelief. The fact that their film, "Strong Yet Broken", made its international debut at what was considered by many as the world's most prestigious film festival hadn't completely hit home to them yet.
