Beijing: Oscar-winning filmmaker Alfonso Cuaron is fascinated with the culture of China and wishes to make a movie in Chinese.

The 54-year-old 'Gravity' helmer was among the headline speakers at the inaugural China-US Motion Picture Summit, held here on Friday, said The Hollywood Reporter.

"For me, the content always goes before the deals, so I don't feel much of the effect in terms of where the money comes from.

"But in my specific case, I'm very intrigued about China. I'm intrigued about the possibility, sometime in the future, to do a film here, but a film in Chinese. I'm fascinated by this culture," Cuaron said.

The Mexican filmmaker said the creative challenge of working in the Chinese language and storytelling tradition excites him.
