The face of a young woman on a maternity delivery bed is the very first scene of this film. She is Huang Xiaoyu (Nan Ji) and her first worry after giving birth is about the baby’s lack of cry, followed by a reassuring scream. Fear of missed connection is – ironically – the first bond between mother and child and it immediately inform us what this drama is about. Chinese writer-director Xiang Zi’s debut feature “A Dog Barking at the Moon”, screened in Panorama at the 69th Berlinale, where it also won the Teddy Jury Award, and was filmed in 18 days, during the director’s own pregnancy and produced with her husband, Barcelona-born José Val Bal, who also signed the cinematography. “A Dog Barking at the Moon” was produced by Acorn Studio (China) and co-produced by Granadian (Spain).
