November 02, 2007 Combining some of the hottest properties in Asian cinema, "Shaolin Girl," with its blend of kung fu, comedy and lacrosse, is Fuji TV's big hope for this year's American Film Market. Co-produced by Japan's Chihiro Kameyama and Hong Kong's Stephen Chow ("Kung Fu Hustle"), the film centers on a young female kung fu teacher, Rin (Kou Shibasaki), who must take over her grandfather's dojo. On her return to Japan, she works to rebuild the dojo and joins her university lacrosse club, putting her considerable physical prowess to work for the team.
