A daughter rides to war in her father's place: that old Chinese legend is the heart of Mulan, Niki Caro's 2020 live-action adventure. Over 115 minutes it brings together wuxia swordplay, fantasy and family drama.

What is Mulan about?

An order from the Emperor reaches every household in China. Each family must give one man to the Imperial Army, which is gathering to defend the country against the Huns. For the Hua family that means an honoured old warrior whose health is failing and who has no son to send. His eldest daughter, Hua Mulan, spirited and quick on her feet, decides she will go instead. She enlists as a man under the name Hua Jun, and from that moment the disguise has to hold. Camp life and combat test her again and again, and she must keep pace with the other recruits while guarding her secret. The road ahead asks her to stop holding back, find her innermost strength and accept what she is truly capable of.

About the cast

Liu Yifei heads the cast. Alongside her are Yoson An, Gong Li, Donnie Yen, Jason Scott Lee, Ron Yuan, Jet Li and Tzi Ma, an ensemble that gives the story's soldiers, commanders, family members and adversaries recognisable faces. Niki Caro directs.

Context & significance

Mulan is a co-production between China and the United States, and it is a live-action retelling of the animated feature of the same name. Its genre tags tell you how it plays: action, adventure, drama, family, fantasy and wuxia. Wuxia is the Chinese tradition of martial-arts storytelling, built around skilled fighters, codes of honour and stylised combat, and the 2020 version leans on that tradition for its battle scenes. At the same time the family label is earned by the story's core, which is a child's loyalty to a parent and the question of how to be brave and honest at once. Reception was mixed, with audiences divided over how it compares with the animated original. For households where children are more comfortable in Farsi, the dubbed version makes it an easy choice for a shared evening.
