Taiwan actress and singer Rene Liu attended the premiere of the
drama "August Rush" as the lead singer for Taiwan's theatrical
release of the Hollywood production.
At the event, Liu presented a guitar to a 9-year-old boy, a
gifted guitar player.
She encouraged the boy to pursue his musical dreams, just as the
main character did in the movie.
"August Rush" tells the story of a charismatic young Irish
guitarist and a sheltered young cellist who have a chance encounter
one magical night above New York's Washington Square, but are soon
torn apart.
In their wake, they leave an infant, August Rush, who was
abandoned by circumstance. Now performing on the streets of New
York, and cared for by a mysterious stranger, August uses his
remarkable musical talent to seek the parents from whom he was
separated at birth.
