Audience:After watching the movie, people will also have a desire to express, or you want to have a desire to communicate. Of course, if the creator himself is there, I think this is the best opportunity.
Director of "Wangza’s Rain Boots" Lahua Jia:I think it is very necessary to communicate with the audience. Especially literary films, after communicating with the audience, we can further understand this work.
There are 80 post-screening exchange activities like this during the film festival, including 43 domestic films. According to the setting of this year’s screening unit, academic lectures such as 40 Years of Fanghua: Looking Back on the Fifth Generation, and A Hundred Years of Chinese in female directors from 1916 were also arranged. This is a more academic activity than post-screening communication.
