More than 500 films, up to 90 percent of which have yet to be released in Chinese mainland theaters, are being screened at the Beijing International Film Festival. Xu Fan reports.
One of the most popular events in the Chinese capital, this year's Beijing International Film Festival, which continues through Saturday, has attracted more attention than usual from the rest of the world.
The festival has drawn more than 600 stars and filmmakers with Oscar winners such as Italian director Giuseppe Tornatore, Black Swan star Natalie Portman and Austrian actor Christoph Waltz.
