Yang Mingming was born in Beijing in 1987, and is a graduate of the National Academy of Chinese Theater Arts. Her debut, a short film “Female Directors,” was deemed one of the most interesting independent Chinese films of 2012 and went to be screened at numerous festivals. She worked with Yang Chao as the editor of his “Crosscurrent.””Girls Always Happy” is her first feature film.
On the occasion of the screening of Girls Always Happy at Five Flavours Festival, where the film earned a special mention from the jury, we speak with her and Li Yuan, one of the actresses of the movie, about “Crosscurrent”, mothers and daughters, the shooting of the film, hutong, the situation in Chinese cinema, and other topics.
You have worked in Yang Chao’s “Crosscurrent” as an editor. How was the experience of working in the film and what about working with Mark Lee?
