"Love that Don't Talk" produced by iQiyi will be launched on May 16

On May 16, the movie "Love Without Talking" produced by Gongfu Pictures, iQiyi, Taopiaopiao, directed by Desert, produced by Chen Guofu, starring Zhang Yixing, and specially introduced by Li Luo'an was officially launched on iQiyi. iQiyi VIP members can enjoy free viewing.

The film is adapted from the short film of the same name directed by Desert in iQiyi variety show "Start Filming". The feature film continues to show the deaf group's cherishment of emotions, tenacity for life, and the difficulties and injustice they encounter through delicate lens language.

Since the Qingming Festival was released in theaters this year, it has performed well in reputation, with Taopiaopiao score of 9.7, Maoyan score of 9.4, and Douban score of 7.0, continuing the warmth and touch of that year from the screen to the screen. Now that I have returned to iQiyi online broadcast, many iQiyi VIP members said excitedly: "I am moved, the promises in the program that year have come true." "The series in my lifetime has finally waited for the movie version to be launched." "From short films to feature films, I want to watch them one after another."

"The Unspeakable Love" tells the story of the deaf father Xiaoma (played by Zhang Yixing) and Jianting's daughter Mumu (played by Li Luo'an) who depend on each other. Mumu has served as a "bridge" for her father to communicate with the outside world since she was a child, but as she grew up, the lives of the father and daughter faced a realistic impact, and an accident caused Xiaoma to fall into the trap of a criminal gang...

In 2021, Director Deermo used 20 minutes to tell the family story of a deaf family in the program "Start Filming" to impress the judges and millions of viewers on the scene, and finally won the honor of "Best Young Director". At that time, iQiyi reached a cooperation intention with the desert.

After three years of visits, investigation and script polishing, the desert finally expanded the short film into a feature film, fulfilling the promise of "let the hearing-impaired group be seen." The participation of nearly 30 hearing-impaired actors in the film breaks the barrier between the screen with a sense of reality, conveying the emotional resonance of "silence is better than sound".

At the 2025 iQiyi World Conference, director De Mo admitted that he is actually an "old man" of iQiyi. As of now, in his personal creation, there is a drama, a variety show, and a movie that has been collaborated with iQiyi. "IQiyi is a platform that respects creators, especially originality. "Love Who Doesn't Talk" originated from a short film shot in the variety show "Start Shoot" four years ago, and we spent more than three years to produce it. Along the way, iQiyi has always escorted me. I hope that such a sincere work can be seen by more than one person. Thank you iQiyi."

With the launch of the movie "Don't Talk Love", iQiyi simultaneously launched a special topic for the online screening of desert directors' works, including the feature film "Don't Talk Love" and "I Want We Together", the series "Hello, Old Times" and the variety show short film "Don't Talk Love", which fully demonstrates the director's creative context.

Desert is particularly good at delicate emotional narratives. His past works have received good responses from the market and audience: "Hello, Old Time" has a Douban score of 8.6 and was nominated for the 29th Golden Eagle Award; "I Want Us Together" has a box office of nearly 400 million yuan and was nominated for the 33rd Huading Award; the feature film "Love Who Says" has now been nominated for the Outstanding Domestic Film Award at the 32nd Beijing University Film Festival.

The world can be silent, but we always have love. Starting from May 16, I will come to iQiyi to watch "Love Without Talking", and receive love signals while flying fingers, resonating with the silent love that reaches people's hearts.
