Since the opening time of the 10th Beijing International Film Festival (BJIFF) was finalized, movie fans have focused their attention on this year’s Beijing Film Panorama, which mainly include four sections: Online Screenings, TV Screenings, Cinema Screenings and Outdoor Screenings.

  Through all-round innovation, the BJIFF Beijing Film Panorama this year will be presented in both online and offline forms, featuring four sections to cater to movie fans’ desire to watch movies and broaden the selection of the masses.

  The Online Screenings section will be streamed by iQIYI as the “official exclusive online screening platform”, while the TV Screenings section will be televised by Beijing Satellite TV, BTV Movie & TV Channel and BTV Youth Channel in different time slots. For audiences who want to enjoy high-quality movies at any time, they simply zero in on the relevant channels and streaming platform via mobile phone, tablet, television or other devices during the screenings, and can participate in the BJIFF Beijing Film Panorama working in sync with the “cloud” – no matter where they are.

　　

　　It’s hard to get a ticket for the most popular movies among the Out-of-Competition Section

  It is odds that the offline Out-of-Competition Section must be the most anticipated event for moviegoers who have stayed away from the theater for half a year. In light of the spectacular scenes on the opening day of tickets available over previous years, we wish all movie fans can snap up any tickets they want. Relative to the previous editions of BJIFF, Outdoor Screenings is a new attempt to diversify the form this year. Under the night sky in the midsummer season, classic movie scenes will bring people a somewhat fantastic feeling of traveling through time as if going back to childhood.

　　

　　Open-air viewing not only generates a childhood atmosphere, but also can make viewers relieve summer heat, which is loved by movie fans

  Similar to before, this year’s screening activities still include not only the most popular Chinese and foreign films that have attracted the most attention from fans in the past year, but also many frequently-watched classics in the film history. The specific film lists will also be announced later.

  Movie fans who are familiar with the BJIFF are sure to feel particularly close to the tagline “Come to Beijing to watch the world’s best films in spring” – this is the most sincere invitation from the BJIFF Out-of-Competition Section sent to every movie lover. Though the time of “annual meeting” of the BJIFF with fans has changed from early spring to midsummer, the “best films” will always arrive as scheduled, waiting to meet the fans. We believe what remains the same for us is our love for the film, regardless of it is presented online or offline, in cinema or outdoors.
