Other name: 别叫我酒神, dont call me wine god

Description:

"Don't Call Me Bacchus" plunges viewers into the world of Lao Jiu, a perpetually drunken god hailing from the Northeast. Played by Song Xiaofeng, Lao Jiu’s divine status is constantly overshadowed by his love for the bottle, presenting a far-from-mythical figure. His carefree, boozy existence takes a dramatic turn when his sister, driven by untold reasons, runs away from their home.

Shaken from his stupor by this sudden disappearance, Lao Jiu, despite his flaws, feels an undeniable pull of responsibility and brotherly love. He decides to embark on a momentous journey to find her. Accompanied by his loyal group of friends, this unlikely divine entourage heads south, leaving the familiar Northeast behind. Their quest is not merely geographical; it's a test of Lao Jiu's character, pushing him to confront his habits and truly embrace his role as a protective brother. The film promises an adventure where a god redefined by his mission learns that true purpose lies beyond a drink.
