Chinese Feminist Comedy ‘Her Story’ on Course for U.S., International Releases: ‘Women’s Voices and Stories Are Becoming More Prominent’ (EXCLUSIVE)

'B For Busy’ director Shao Yihui sets ‘Her Story’ feminist comedy drama film on course for Chinese and international releases.

“ Her Story,” a Mainland Chinese comedy-drama film told from a largely female perspective, is set for a release in major international territories later this month that are coordinated with its wide opening in China. The film is directed by Shao Yihui, who previously made a mark with her 2021 picture “B For Busy.” Its fast-paced story focuses on two women – one a recently unemployed single mom, the other a new neighbor who is more troubled than she appears – who become friends. “The growing attention to female narratives reflects a shifting cultural landscape, with women’s stories and voices becoming increasingly prominent in the Chinese entertainment industry,” Tiger Pictures said.
