She's Got No Name (Chinese: c=酱园弄|p=Jiàngyuán nòng) is a 2024 Chinese–Hong Kong crime drama film directed and co-produced by Peter Chan, and features an ensemble cast led by Zhang Ziyi. The film, which is based on a true story of an unsolved murder case in Shanghai and later adapted into the non-fiction novel Reversal of the Case by Jiang Feng, follows a housewife who is accused of the gruesome murder of her husband.[1] [2] [3]
Synopsis
Set in a bustling alleyway during the Japanese occupation of Shanghai in the 1940s, the film centres on a wife, Zhan Zhou, who was being charged with the bloody dismemberment of her husband – a killing that seems impossible for her to have committed alone. The murder thrusts Zhan into the spotlight and the court of public opinion, forcing her towards a fate intertwined with that of her own country.
Production
The film was in early development in June 2015, and principal photography began in December 2023.[4] A big set was built in Zhapu, Hongkou, Shanghai to recreate the real Jiangyuan Lane in the 1940s.[5] [6]
Filming officially wrapped on 6 March 2024, and the cast and crew held the wrap party one day later.[7] On 17 April 2024, the film's cast was revealed.[8]
Release
She's Got No Name was selected to be screened out of competition at the 77th Cannes Film Festival, where it had its world premiere on 24 May 2024.[9]
At the Cannes Film Festival, Peter Chan, along with the cast including Zhang Ziyi, Lei Jiayin, Eric Wang, Dong Chengpeng, Yang Mi, Li Xian and Ci Sha, attended the red carpet premiere.
