Premiering out of competition at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, An Unfinished Film, from Chinese director Lou Ye, delivers a powerful message in its story of Covid-induced lockdown in Wuhan.
When China s border cities were heavily impacted due to the country s COVID-19 control measures, they had to take the hardest task in helping the country to keep the coronavirus at bay. Now that the borders are reopened, a sense of revival and the quickly returned hustle and bustle have showered these border cities. These cities are also resuming trade with neighboring countries, greeting an influx of tourists, eyeing foreign goods entering their markets and they are excited to resume their traditional winter sports, all without the fear of the coronavirus.
