Program Note
Hong Kong in the 1960s. Mrs. Yu lives at No. 7 Cherry Lane with her mysteriously charming teenage daughter Meiling. When Ziming, a university student, becomes an English tutor to Meiling, a special bond begins to form between the two women and Ziming. Upon meeting Ziming, Mrs. Yu, an intellectual who once fought for social change, recalls her youthful passion for literature. One day, she goes to a movie theater with Ziming, and the two experience a magical moment that sparks their forbidden desire. Portraying a dangerous relationship between a mother, daughter, and a university student that crosses the boundary of hidden desires and love, this sensuous story unfolds on the screen with beautiful images and music. The first animated film directed by Yonfan, No. 7 Cherry Lane stars a cast of Silvia CHANG and Zhao Wei, whose voices create an even more captivating atmosphere. Winner of Best Screenplay Award at Venice Film Festival In Competition. (CHAE Bohyun)
