''Fish and Elephant'' () is documentary filmmaker and former TV hostess Li Yu's feature film directorial debut. The film is also often referred to as the first Chinese mainland film to broach the topic of lesbian relationships in China.〔 〕 The story follows the elephant keeper in the Beijing Zoo who maintains an aquarium of fish in her home (hence the two-animal title), and her lesbian lover, a fabric saleswoman in an outdoor market. Her relationship is tested, however, when her recently divorced mother returns to town in the hope of setting her daughter up in marriage. Further complicating matters is one of Xiaoqun's ex-lovers also returning to her life with the law in pursuit. The film was produced by Cheng Yong Productions and was an "underground" production (in that it was not made with official support). Moreover, the film was cast entirely with non-professional actors and actresses.〔 ==Cast== * Pan Yi as Xiaoqun, the elephant keeper at the Beijing Zoo. * Shitou as Xiaoling, Xiaoqun's girlfriend, she sells clothes she makes in a market stall. * Zhang Qianqian as Junjun, Xiaoqun's ex-girlfriend.
