Lights dimmed and cameras rolled as the 14th Beijing International Film Festival launched its French Film Week on April 11, spotlighting cross-cultural collaboration! 🌟 CMG Deputy Editor-in-Chief Fan Yun called it 'a bridge for storytelling' while French Embassy Minister Counselor Myriam Pavageau praised Sino-French artistic ties.
🍿 Moviegoers can binge 10 French gems—from indie dramas to crowd-pleasing comedies—all subtitled in English and Chinese. The lineup celebrates 60 years of France-China diplomatic relations, blending arthouse vibes with mainstream appeal.
🎭 'Cinema speaks a universal language,' Pavageau told attendees, hinting at future collaborations. Free masterclasses with directors and discounted tickets for students aim to make film magic accessible to all. 📽️
