The posters for director John Woo's first short film Shuang Shuang and Xiao Mao were recently unveiled in China.
Renowned Chinese actress Jiang Wenli is one of the leads.
The short film is one of seven parts of the joint project All the Invisible Children. It features children around the world struggling in the face of violence, disease and poverty.
They are stand-ins for millions of their silent peers, those who are forgotten or ignored every day on every continent.
UNICEF invited eight well-known directors, including Medhi Charef, Spike Lee and John Woo, to donate their creative talent to the world's "invisible children."
