Content overview: “Wang Chao's 'A Woman' Acquired by France's Malavida, Retrospective Set for 2027”. French distributor Malavida has acquired Wang Chao's 2022 drama 'A Woman,' which won the screenplay prize at San Sebastián but never received a theatrical release in France. The deal, announced during Lyon's International Classic Film Market, also includes plans for a wider retrospective of the Chinese filmmaker's work set for spring 2027. The acquisition brings renewed attention to a film that has been largely unseen by French audiences despite its festival acclaim, and the retrospective signals a growing interest in Wang Chao's body of work.
Malavida's move highlights the enduring value of international arthouse cinema and the role of distributors in reviving overlooked films. As the 2027 retrospective approaches, cinephiles can anticipate a deeper exploration of Wang Chao's distinctive vision.
