Alexi Tan, a film director of notable acclaim, embarked on his cinematic journey under the guidance of the illustrious John Woo, who not only mentored him but also produced his debut film, "Blood Brothers". This inaugural project, a testament to Tan's burgeoning talent, was shot entirely on the picturesque streets of Shanghai, and subsequently, it had the privilege of closing the 64th Venice Film Festival, followed by its North American Gala Presentation at the 32nd Toronto International Film Festival, a prestigious honor that solidified Tan's presence on the global filmmaking scene.
As Tan's career continued to unfold, he went on to direct his next feature film, "Color Me Love", a groundbreaking cinematic endeavor that marked a significant milestone in Chinese filmmaking. This innovative project was the first of its kind in China to delve into the inner workings of the country's burgeoning fashion and art scene, offering a unique glimpse into the vibrant cultural landscape of the nation.
