34 movies to be screened at film festival for college students

Speaking about the event, says Li Xiaobin, deputy Party secretary of BNU, says: “The BCSFF, initiated in 1993, has been developed into an important platform to display high-quality domestic films and promote a movie culture in campuses over the past 26 years. And we hope the festival will have a positive impact on young people and pass down our national spirit.”

At the opening ceremony, actresses Tao Yuling, Zhu Xijuan and Yan Danchen, producer Zhai Junjie and director Liang Ming spoke about their acting and filmmaking experiences.

Zhu, 81, recalled how she got the chance to star in the well-known movie The Red Detachment of Women and how she prepared for the role and said that young people should experience life before they write scripts or make movies.
