Did you know that one of the earliest known versions of the Cinderella fairy tale was Chinese? Cinderella Moon blends Chinese cosmology and magical realism in a spectacular adaptation filmed in the Yunnan Province of China on the Tibetan plateau. In a majestic Kingdom, events on earth reflect the balance of the sun and the moon. When orphaned girl Mei Mei is mistreated by her stepmother and stepsisters, the moon refuses to move in the sky. Aided by the bones of a magical fish and her mother’s bejeweled slippers, Mei Mei attends the Full Moon Dance.
