About

Discover two compelling films as part of the Mint on Tour programme—a women-led Chinese cinema initiative bringing bold, award-winning stories from Asia to Northern England.

Chinatown Cha-Cha (PG) Date: Friday 17 October, 19:30 | Duration: 85 mins | Follow 92-year-old former nightclub dancer Coby Yee and the Grant Avenue Follies on a vibrant final tour connecting Chinese communities across the US, Cuba, and China. Winner of Best Feature and Audience Choice at the 2025 Mint Chinese Film Festival, this documentary celebrates resilience, identity, and the joy of dancing at any age.

An Unfinished Film (12A) Date: Saturday 18 October |  Directed by Lou Ye, this haunting drama revisits a film crew near Wuhan in January 2020 as they attempt to resume a long-paused project—only to be caught in the unfolding COVID-19 lockdown. Premiered at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, it’s a poignant reflection on memory, disruption, and shared human experience.

Presented by the Mint Chinese Film Festival and supported by Film Hub North, this touring programme highlights the best of Chinese and women’s cinema. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see these acclaimed films on the big screen in Bradford.
