Half of the game, enthusiastic anti -increase

Shadan revealed that in May this year, Beijing suffered a new wave of epidemic, and it was the time when the Beijing International Film Festival began to prepare. By June, the situation gradually became clear, and the North Film Festival will be held as scheduled this year. For the exhibition unit, the rest of the time is very urgent, especially to connect the films that have just appeared at the internationally renowned film festival this year, it is necessary to compete for time.

Due to the impact of the epidemic, the number of films of the "Beijing Showing" unit of the North Film Festival this year was 135, a decrease from previous years. There were more than 30 theaters in the show, and this this year was 18. The screened cycle has used to be about 16 days in the past, and this year is shortened to 10 days. "Overall, this year's screening unit is screened by half of last year."

Although there are fewer screenings, Shadan found that the enthusiasm of the audience's watching the film has not decreased. "The show time is short and fewer sessions, and the audience's enthusiasm is inspired." He took the Chinese Film Architecture as an example. During the film festival, the Chinese Film Archives had duplers from morning to night. On the day of the invoicing, the overall seat rate of the Chinese Film Archives reached 80%, which is a very amazing number! Another person in charge of another North Film Festival Showing the Cinema Broadway Film Center (Wanuo City Store) told Sha Dan that only 5 movies in this theater were not sold out.

Exhibition highlights highlight cultural significance

"This year is the 25th anniversary of the return of Hong Kong to the motherland. The twelfth Beijing International Film Festival and the 46th Hong Kong International Film Festival this year have been held in August."

Another highlight of this year's "Beijing Show" unit is the 14 works of Greek national treasure director Azheloplos. "This year is his 10th anniversary of his death. I got the copyright. Among these films, there are classics such as "Fog in the Fog" and "Eternal Day", as well as works like "Wandering Artist" and "Symbols" have never been shown in Beijing. "

As a curator, Shadan must consider a lot of problems when choosing a film. "We do film festivals, not just serving some niche movies, we also have to face the Chinese film industry that is all -encompassing. The works of the audience can feel a cultural significance. The classic movie "Tea House", which was just repaired, was directed by Xie Tian, ​​so it was performed by Xie Tian, ​​Lan Tianye, Huang Zongluo, Ying Ruocheng. The 70th anniversary of the establishment of the court has multiple significance to show this movie. The first is the meaning of repair, and the second is the significance of paying tribute. Tribute to the classics, pay tribute to human beings, and pay tribute to the city of Beijing. "

The film was just released in Japan on August 6, and it soon appeared on the North Film Festival. It was difficult to find a ticket.

"Why do these foreign films take the North Film Festival as the first choice of screening? This is the recognition of the national power and market potential behind the city of Beijing. We are making film festivals. It is very important to promote the development of the film industry and help these foreign countries Movies enter the Chinese film market. "

Looking back on the selection process of the Beibei Festival in the past years, Shadan proudly said that the Beiying Festival has done a very balanced four aspects of policy, industry, filmmakers, and fans.
