THE MERMAID

CLOSING NIGHT FILM

World Sales: IMGlobal

Eccentric millionaire Liu Xuan purchases the Green Gulf dolphin reserve, and then proceeds to bombard it with sonar waves to kill off the sea-life. The Mer-people who have lived there peaceably for years are now faced with a slow and painful extinction. A beautiful mermaid posing as human is sent to assassinate him.
Hong Kong super star Stephen Chow hits all the right notes in this lm that is both a nut ball comedy and a magical tale of enchantment, one whose siren song echoes the ills of a planet engulfed in environmental crisis.
