"The Dating Game" follows three working-class bachelors navigating a dating landscape reshaped by politics and economy in a country where eligible men are estimated to outnumber women by 30 million.
As they join an intensive seven-day dating camp led by one of China’s most sought-after coaches in a last-ditch effort to find love. Blending moments of humor and vulnerability, the film offers an intimate look at the pressures shaping modern connection and belonging.
