Meet Julia, a Polish film enthusiast who’s spent nearly two decades learning Chinese and connecting cultures like a real-life superhero 🦸♀️. Since 2005, she’s shuttled between Poland and the Chinese mainland, captivated by its high-speed railways🚄, mobile payment boom💳, and ever-evolving cities. Now based in Barcelona, she’s launched the Lychee International Film Festival—a sweet🍬 cultural project bringing 56 Chinese films to Spanish audiences!
\"I wanted to keep that link with China alive,\" Julia told us. Her festival—a collab with Chinese creatives—has become a vibrant hub for cross-cultural storytelling. From heartwarming dramas to indie gems, the films showcase China’s modern spirit while sparking dialogues with global viewers. 🌍✨
Julia’s mission? \"To build bridges, not walls.\" As streaming platforms and TikTok trends reshape how we consume media, her work reminds us that cinema remains a universal language—one that can turn distant neighbors into close friends. 🎥❤️
