A total of eight Chinese films, including four animated films, will be screened at the upcoming Moscow International Film Week, which is scheduled to run from August 23 to 28 in Moscow.
The screening of these Chinese films will not only bring a new visual and auditory feast to Russian audiences but also help enhance the international status and influence of Chinese cinema, further promoting cultural exchanges between the two peoples of China and Russia.
"The Moscow International Film Week will be held at 100 venues, with about 200 events taking place daily. This event will introduce Russian audiences to the latest Chinese films and will aid in the creation of joint projects between Russia and China. A large-scale commercial project is also planned, with the Chinese delegation being one of the largest," said Alexei Fursin, Moscow city government minister and minister of the Moscow Department of Culture.
Screenings will take place at traditional cinemas as well as at unique venues such as open-air pools, hotel rooftops, parks, and floating cinemas, offering audiences a diverse viewing experience.
The year 2024 marks the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Russia. As a result, 2024-25 have been designated as Years of Culture between Russia and China.
The two countries have planned more than 230 events to be held within the framework of this initiative in 51 Chinese cities and 38 cities in Russia.
The two countries will have more opportunities for exchanges and cooperation in the fields of culture and film production, especially in animation production.

According to the film week organizers, the cluster consists of several key facilities such as the Moskino Digital Platform, Moskino Film Commission, Moskino Production and Experience Park, METMACH Film Creative Center, Gorky Film Studio and Moskino Cinemas.
Additionally, at the special discussion session called Country-Study, which will focus on co-production opportunities, Chinese filmmakers will share their opinions on the Chinese movie market, communication with local partners and content creation.
