The first full-length feature film in Chinese cinema centered on RV travel, 'North of the Tropic of Cancer', is set for nationwide release on June 26. A pre-release screening took place in Shenzhen on June 20, and the film was also shown in Guangzhou. Director Zhao Hantang and actors Jiang Yiyan, Zhu Hongjia, and Xiao Xiao met with audiences.
The plot revolves around an RV journey and weaves together three intersecting stories about people of different ages and social statuses, exploring themes of family relationships, self-discovery, and overcoming life's challenges. Filming took place in real natural locations — Tibet, Xinjiang, Qinghai, Sichuan, and Guangxi — without the use of special effects. One source initially listed the release date as June 19, but later reports confirm June 26.
