Curiozități

Beijing Watermelon is a 1989 Japanese slice of life film directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi. Based partly on true events, the film follows the relationship between a Japanese greengrocer and a group of Chinese exchange students. The film is noted for the proximity of its production and release to the Tiananmen Square massacre, which forced the cancellation of plans to shoot the Beijing-set portions of the film on-location.

Production and release

Beijing Watermelon is directed and edited by Nobuhiko Obayashi with a screenplay by Yoshihiro Ishimatsu. The plot is partly based on true events, and was produced after Obayashi and his crew met the real-life grocer and students that the film is based on while shooting another film.

In 2021, a restoration of the film was undertaken by distributor Shochiku.
