Lost and Love is a 2015 Chinese-Hong Kong heart-wrenching film written and directed by novelist and television screenwriter Peng Sanyuan (彭三源) in her directorial debut and starring Andy Lau Tak-wah (刘德华) and Jing Boran (井柏然). The film is inspired by an ACTUAL abduction case in 2010 when a Hubei (湖北) resident was reunited with his son when a university student recognized the child after seeing a post on Sina Weibo (新浪微博).

This movie was inspired by the TRUE STORY of Guo Gangtang (郭剛堂), who reunited with his son after more than two decades of being abducted by human traffickers at two years old, in front of their home in Shandong (山東) Province in 1997.

Guo spent twenty-four years crisscrossing the country, traveling more than 482,800km on a motorbike, with two banners each showing a photograph of his son, Guo Xinzhen (郭新振).

One day in 1999 when his two-year-old son Lei Da (寶石) went missing, Anhui (安徽) farmer Lei Zekuan (Andy) begins his fifteen-year-long journey of hardship searching for his lost son. On his way he meets Zeng Shuai (Jing), a young car mechanic who was abducted as a child himself and is also searching for his parents.
