The 77th Cannes Film Festival comes to an end on Saturday. One conclusion can already be drawn: After pandemic-related breaks and accusations of censorship, Chinese film is back. Veteran star director Jia Zhangke (left) presented his romantic drama „Caught by the Tides,“ which captures the changes in China over the past 25 years. Peter Chan’s „She’s Got No Name“ tells the story of a murder case in 1940s Shanghai. The leading role is played by Zhang Ziyi. Other films from China and Hong Kong included Lou Yes’ „An Unfinished Film,“ Soi Cheang’s „Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In“ and Guan Hu’s „Black Dog.“ The French-Chinese documentary „Kangxi and Louis XIV,“ which deals with parallels between the two unequal rulers, was also screened on the fringes of the festival.
