Chinese In Paris
Directed by Jean Yanne
Produced by Ciné Qua Non
A satirical comedy that uses a fantastical Chinese invasion of Paris as a mirror to examine occupation, collaboration, and national identity through absurdist humor.
Overnight, Paris is invaded - although peacefully - but the Chinese Army, and millions of Chinese people... It's the Nazi occupation all over again, with modern - funny - twists.
