The Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF) made a grand comeback to Berlin on Monday, reviving its presence in the German capital after a 9-year break. 🎬✨
The event was a gathering of luminaries from the global film industry, all eager to celebrate and acknowledge the remarkable strides made by the Chinese mainland's film scene. Notable attendees included Polish filmmaker Jerzy Skolimowski, who was the jury president for the 25th SIFF Golden Goblet Awards in 2023; Ichiyama Shozo, the programming director of the Tokyo International Film Festival and a former juror for SIFF’s Asian New Talent section in 2010; and Marco Müller, a distinguished producer, scholar, and jury member for the main competition of the Golden Goblet Awards in 2021.
The event not only showcased the vibrant evolution of China’s cinematic landscape but also fostered international collaboration and dialogue among filmmakers and industry experts. As SIFF continues to bridge cultures through film, its return to Berlin marks a significant milestone in promoting global cinematic exchange. 🌏🎥
