A DATE has been released for the fifth Beijing International Film Festival.

The organizing committee announced that the event is scheduled to run this year from April 16 to 23.

Renowned French film director Luc Besson will head the international jury for the Tiantan Award.

In 2014, his action thriller “Lucy” earned US$412 million in global box office sales, breaking the record for his previous films.

Since its launch in 2001, the Beijing International Film Festival has developed into the largest international film expo in Asia.

As part of the festival, the Chinese and Foreign Film Cooperation Forum is held annually.

It provides a platform for international film exchange, with the participation of film and TV production studios, film industry associations and related agencies.
