The Cannes organizing committee plans to screen "Chacun son cinema" on May 20, which consists of three-minute shorts made by 35 renowned directors in celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Cannes Film Festival.
To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Cannes Film Festival in 2007, the organizing committee invited 35 world-renowned directors with ties to Cannes to each make a 3-minute short film expressing their feelings and emotions about cinema in their hearts, including Ken Loew's, Roman Polanski, Abbas, Wim Wenders, Gus Vanzant, the Cohen Brothers, as well as Chinese directors Hou Hsiao-hsien, Tsai Ming-liang, and Wong Kar-wai, etc. The film is titled "Chacun son cinema", directed by Tsai Ming-liang. Tsai Ming-liang's short film titled "It's a Dream" stars Tsai Ming-liang's mother; Hou Hsiao-Hsien's "Deng Ji Pavilion" stars Zhang Zhen and Shu Qi; and Wong Kar-Wai's English-language film titled "I Travelled 9000 Kilometers To Give It To You" is the first of its kind in China. I Travelled 9000 Kilometers To Give It To You", which directly translates to "I Travelled 9000 Kilometers To Give It To You", starring Fan Chik-wai and Zhang Rui-ling. After winning the Nantes Film Festival in 2002 for "Salty Soya Bean Milk" and being shortlisted for the Golden Horse Awards for "Beautiful Time," Fan was highly regarded, and soon signed a 10-year agency contract with Wang's Zedong Company, but he waited and waited and waited, but only got to star in a movie produced by Wong Kar-wai in 2003, and then in a movie produced by Wang Kar-wai. In 2003, he acted in Wong Kar-wai's "Underground Railroad", and the two never had the chance to work together, but now the short film in Cannes allows them to make their real debut, and the title of the film "9,000 kilometers" is also worthy of the name.
