A Touch of Zen (Chinese: 俠女) is a 1971 "wuxia" film co-edited, written, and directed by film maker King Hu. Its screenplay is based on a classic Chinese story "Xianü" in the book "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" by Pu Songling. The film is set in the Ming dynasty under the dominance of eunuchs and narrates multiple themes of transcendence to dichotomies, Zen Buddhism, feminism, conservative female roles, and the ghost story. At the 1975 Cannes Film Festival, the film won the Technical Grand Prize award.
