Birds of Prey Director Cathy Yan on Her Debut Film Dead Pigs

Birds of Prey, many fans were quick to look up her feature film debut, Dead Pigs. The movie premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in 2018, where it won a Special Award Prize for Ensemble Acting. Now, 3 years after its critically acclaimed debut, Dead Pigs is finally streaming for American audiences on MUBI starting on February 12. While many successful indie directors (Colin Trevorrow, Josh Trank) are given the reins to massive franchises ( Jurassic World, Fantastic Four, respectively), female directors are rarely rewarded with such a giant platform.

Dead Pigs, the Film Shining a Surreal Light on Life in Modern-Day Shanghai

Dead Pigs, 2018(Film still) As Cathy Yan’s first feature film is released on MUBI, the director speaks to Kat Haylett about making and meaning of the movie February 10, 2021 In the spring of 2013, over 16,000 dead pigs were found floating in the Huangpu River in Shanghai. Quickly, this became a national – and then global – news story due to the bizarre nature of the incident – which was attributed to the growing reluctance of farmers to cover the rising cost of burying livestock.

It sets the tone for a story that has many surreal and darkly humorous elements, which Yan thinks “feel real to life – that we always find humour even in the darkest moments.”

Dead Pigs review – winding tale of life in cash-crazed Shanghai

Dead Pigs review – winding tale of life in cash-crazed Shanghai Peter Bradshaw A breezily westernised style of Chinese movie is on offer in this 2018 debut feature from Chinese-American film-maker Cathy Yan, who two years later went to Hollywood to direct Birds of Prey, starring Margot Robbie.

It is inspired by a real-life incident in which thousands of dead pigs were found in the city’s Huangpu river, dumped by poverty-stricken farmers who couldn’t pay the disposal fees; the pig symbolism reminded me a tiny bit of Alan Bennett’s A Private Function.
