Following in an illustrious line of film festivals originating in Changchun organised by the HQ of China's historic Changchun Film Studio, which is now part of Changchun Film Group Corporation, the Changchun International Youth Film Festival began as a boutique graduate festival of celebration for emerging opportunities in the global market, incoming and outgoing, first for Russian film, then the next year Italian film. Now entering its third year in 2018.

Our festival is warm and personable. You will not be lost in the crowd. Key people who make key decisions will be close at hand.  We're vitally interested in you and your organisation just as you are interested enough in us to take the time to ask for more information, for guidance, for introductions to friends who share your vision.

Changchun extends a warm invitation to colleagues and film lovers around the world who are open to cooperation with China's leading State Owned Enterprise film, television and web content producer and distributor, to gain insights into enormous potentials, free advice from responsible officials, opportunities to network with local investors and film makers.

Affilate partnerships with other international festivals are welcome. Close partnerships with film, dance and drama schools around the world are encouraged. We have particular facility for encourging links with local and regional governments throughout China and internationally. We're interested from a commerical perspective in encouraging reciprocal links for tourism and business creation through the creative arts.

We celebrate the arts and artists just as we celebrate the valuable contributions that artists make to local and international economies.
