The partners involved in the China-Eastern Europe Film Promotion Program (CEEFPP) are Warsaw Film Foundation, based in Warsaw, Poland, Beijing Film Market, based in Beijing, China, and Film Factory, based in Beijing, China.
The aim of the CEEFPP is to encourage long-term relationship and cultural exchange between Chinese and Eastern European film professionals and to facilitate the mutual promotional activities in the area of film between China and Eastern Europe.
The CEEFPP activities will be held in Warsaw, during CentEast Market, in Beijing, during the Beijing Film Market, and at the leading film festivals in Eastern Europe.
A selection of completed new Chinese films and works-in-progress will be presented at CentEast October 18-20 of this year to a number of sales agents and international festival programmers. In April 2014 about ten selected completed new Eastern European films and works-in-progress will be presented at the Beijing Film Market.
Warsaw Film Foundation organises the Warsaw Film Festival (www.wff.pl), accredited by FIAPF (www.fiapf.org) and CentEast Market Warsaw (www.centeast.eu), both held in October.
Beijing Film Market (BFM) is a trade and communication platform of the world film industry, which accompanies the Beijing International Film Festival (www.bjiff.com), held every April since 2011.
Film Factory (www.filmfactory.cn), run by Beijing Good Film Culture Center, is a social networking platform dedicated to the support of independent filmmaking in China and acts as the hub of the independent filmmakers.
China is generally perceived as the fastest growing cinema market in the world, which many would like to conquer. We think about China in a completely different way – as about an important cultural partner.
There is a good understanding between China and Eastern Europe, which has been the natural bridge between the East and the West.
China is not only one of the oldest cultures in the world, but it also gave the world the great Masters of Cinema, whose works are universally admired.
From the very beginning the CEEFPP was designed as a two-way activity, based on principles of partnership and balance.
