This can be seen in her choice of taking on the most challenging roles instead of the merely glamourous ones or the pretty showcase. Rejecting the outmoded conventions of what an actress ought to be, Luna marks the arrival of a new face in Chinese cinema - one that is fiercely on her own terms, paving a new way for women in film from this end of the world
