She’s Got No Name is based on one of the most famous unsolved murder cases in China. Taking place in a bustling alleyway during the Japanese occupation of Shanghai in the 1940’s, the film centres on a wife, Zhan-Zhou (Zhang Ziyi), charged with the bloody dismemberment of her husband – a killing that seems impossible for her to have committed alone. The murder thrusts Zhan-Zhou into the spotlight and the court of public opinion, forcing her towards a fate intertwined with that of her own country. (Cannes Film Festival)
