As reported on NetEase, the movie, which sees Zhou reuniting with Singaporean filmmaker Anthony Chen, will be competing in the Un Certain Regard section, which is parallel to the competition for the Palme d’Or.
The movie also stars Zhou’s rumoured boyfriend Liu Haoran and actor Qu Chuxiao, and tells the blossoming relationship between three young adults in their twenties.
The actress shared the good news on Weibo, writing, “The snow will soon melt, and a new journey is about to start.”
