Lost and Found

Lost and Found is a poignant Chinese short film that intertwines love, loss, and identity in the aftermath of the MH370 tragedy. When Qian Bi vanishes on Malaysian Airlines flight MH370, her boyfriend Xiang Pi is left shattered, clinging to the hope that the airline's promised search results parcel will bring closure. But as Xiang Pi waits, he crosses paths with a mysterious woman who is also searching for a missing loved one—her girlfriend. This chance encounter sparks an unexpected bond between a gay man and a lesbian, both mourning their partners. Together, they navigate grief, societal pressures, and the painful limbo of not knowing. What makes Lost and Found special is its raw, understated exploration of LGBTQ+ love as equally valid and devastating as any other. The film doesn't shy away from the quiet moments of despair and fleeting hope, using the real-life disaster as a backdrop for a deeply human story about finding connection in the darkest of times. A tender, tear-jerking meditation on love that transcends gender and loss.
