Zhang Yimou's Next Film Begins Production

Posted by:
Zhang Yimou's next film following Hero and House of Flying Daggers titled Qian Li Zou Dan Ji will begin production this Friday. The film has a budget of $7.2 million which is much smaller than his previous films. The film will be shot in Lijiang, a Yunnan Province of southwestern China. 

Set in the 1920's, Qian Li Zou Dan Ji tells a story of a Japanese man (Takakura Ken), accompanies his dying son to learn the local opera in China's Yunnan, where they meets a local girl. The girl will be played by Jiang Wen, a graduate student from Beijing Film Academy. Literally, Qian Li Zou Dan Ji means "lone ride over a thousand lis" (1 "li" equals to 0.31 mile).
