Chinese Animation Film ‘The Umbrella Fairy’ to be Launched by Fortissimo at Cannes Market (EXCLUSIVE)


Chinese animation film ‘The Umbrella Fairy’ is to be launched by Fortissimo at the Cannes Market.

Put together with a strongly Oriental aesthetic, the film brings together a rich mix of Chinese traditional crafts, architecture and opera, creating a unique fantastical world. “The Umbrella Fairy,” which will release in mainland Chinese theaters in summer, is the first animated feature produced by the company and also its first film to be handled by Fortissimo for overseas sales. It also recently handled live action production “100 Yards” by veteran director Xu Haofeng, which played last year at the Shanghai and Toronto festivals and at Rotterdam in early 2024.
