    2025-04-08  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

THE 15th Beijing International Film Festival has announced that Jiang Wen, a renowned filmmaker known for blockbusters like “Let the Bullets Fly,” will serve as the jury president of the Tiantan Award, the annual event’s top honor.

The other six jury members are actress Joan Chen, British director David Yates, actress Ni Ni, Finnish director Teemu Nikki, Swiss director-actor Vincent Perez, and Hong Kong art director Tim Yip.

According to the organizers, the Tiantan Award competition has received a total of 1,794 film submissions from 103 countries, marking a remarkable 18.9% increase from last year’s 1,509 films.

The 15 shortlisted films competing for the 10 awards include three Chinese films: “Better Me, Better You,” “Deep in the Mountains,” and “Trapped.”

As one of the festival’s highlights, nearly 300 outstanding Chinese and foreign films will be screened about 900 times across 33 cinemas in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region.

Besides, “Ne Zha 2,” the most commercially successful Chinese film, will feature an exhibition of hand-drawn posters by its director Yang Yu, better known as Jiaozi.

Chen Sicheng, a veteran filmmaker, will serve as the president of the final jury for Project Pitches, a sector aimed at identifying and nurturing promising new creative forces for the domestic industry.

The festival will be held from April 18 to 26.(China Daily)
