Adjust font size:

The mega-episode Chinese drama, Memoirs in China, is set to explore a global market at the upcoming MIPCOM International TV Market, opening in Cannes on October 8.

Director Zhang Li will present an English-language trailer to introduce his newly-finished historical work at the world gathering of broadcasters, television producers, and distributors.

Set in the late Qing Dynasty, at the beginning of the 20th century, Memoirs in China chronicles two big families as they decline, explores a poignant inter-cultural love forbidden in a feudal society, and examines the confusion caused by the introduction of modern Western thought to Chinese people of the time.

The 100-episode drama boasts a multinational production line-up, including popular Chinese actor Zhang Guoli, Swedish actor Lennart Rolf Svensson, acclaimed Chinese composer Zhao Jiping, and Japanese cinematographer Tsuji Tomohiko.
