Curiosità

Journey to the West is a 2021 Chinese film written and directed by Dashan Kong in his feature film debut. The English title is inspired by the 16th century Chinese literary classic of the same name. It had its world premiere at the 5th Pingyao International Film Festival in October 2021, with broader release in 2023.

Production

The film was produced on a small budget, and combines genres of soft science fiction, comedy, mystery, and road movies to tell a reimagined story of the Chinese classic, Journey to the West, via a faux-documentary style that eventually gives way to dramatic storytelling.

Chinese sci-fi director Frant Gwo served as one of the film's executive producers, helped with its funding, and appears in a minor cameo role.
