Background
Manchukuo Film Association Corporation (株式會社滿洲映画協會, Kabushiki kaisha Manshū eiga kyōkai) (Chinese: 株式會社滿洲映畫協會), also known as Man'ei (滿映), was a Japanese film studio in Manchukuo during the 1930s and 1940s. Man'ei controlled film production as well as release and international distribution of Manchurian films. It was originally formed in 1937 as a joint venture between the government of Manchukuo and the South Manchurian Railway Company.
Man'ei collapsed following the Soviet invasion of Manchukuo as well as the surrender of Japan. The studio would later be taken over by the Communist Party of China and merged with the Northeast Film Studio to form the Changchun Film Studio.
