STORYLINE
JET LI SUBDUES DEMONS IN FANTASY ACTION FILM
Veteran action star Jet Li and action director Tony Ching are expanding their repertoire into the children''s fairy tale - but they also have an adult audience in mind.
Their latest movie, "The Sorcerer and the White Snake," had its world premiere out of competition at the Venice Film Festival on Friday.
The movie is based on a classic Chinese fairytale that has entered popular consciousness as seamlessly as Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty in the West.
In the film, Li plays a sorcerer whose job it is to subdue demons - good or evil - and slay monsters.
The White Snake, a benign demon played by Eva Huang sporting an elegant computer-generated white snake tail, takes a risk for love, using her powers to become human in her pursuit of a young herbalist whom she spies gathering flowers.
The action takes place against a fantasy-filled landscape of mystical craggy peaks and a cauldron of molten lava where Jet''s sorcerer destroys an evil demon.
"The Sorcerer and the White Snake" is showing out of competition at the 68th edition of the Venice Film Festival which runs until 10th September.
