POP diva Faye Wong’s daughter Leah Dou has recently released a new song, “(It’s Not a Crime) It’s Just What We Do,” which is the theme song for a coming-of-age film “Soulmate.”
A music video about Dou’s performance, which was co-produced by Hong Kong filmmaker Peter Chan and the director of “Soulmate” Vernie Yeung, has also been unveiled.
In this music video, filmed entirely in black-and-white, Dou meets both Ansheng and July, two young girls who are portrayed by Chinese actress Zhou Dongyu and Ma Sichuan respectively.
Dou said that she’s created the theme song after she watched the film and got to understand Ansheng and July’s sisters’ affection. It is also the singer’s first experience lending her voice to a movie since she began her career as a singer in 2012.
The movie “Soulmate,” also known as “July and Ansheng” in Chinese, is an adaptation from online novelist Anne Baby’s work of the same name.
It tells the story of two girls who have been friends since they were 13 years old. But, the two happen to fall in love with the same guy called Jia Ming, and are forced to choose between eternal friendship and love.
“Soulmate” is set to be released Sept. 14.
