Zhai Jun, Chinese ambassador to France; Liang Ge, deputy director of the film board under the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television; and French actor Dany Boon all attended as guests of honor.
"Chinese film is becoming more and more popular in France. Last year, which is the 50th anniversary of the establishment of Sino-France diplomatic ties, the film 'Wolf Totem', co-produced by China and France, was a huge success in both countries. I believe such cooperation and communication between the two nations has a great prospects and a bright future," Zhai Jun said.
The Festival of Chinese Cinema in France was founded in 2011 with the aim of letting French audiences discover the richness and diversity of Chinese contemporary films and enhancing dialogue between professional filmmakers of the two countries.
