Pakistani movies in Beijing to boost ties
China DailyThe Pakistan Film Festival kicked off last Wednesday in Beijing. Five Pakistani movies were screened at the Pakistan Film Festival that kicked off on Aug 4 in Beijing, a move aimed to help Chinese audience further understand Pakistani culture. "The movie exchanges between China and Pakistan have been playing an important role in enhancing the mutual trust and friendship between the two countries and peoples," said Zhang Xiaoguang, deputy director of the China Film Archive, adding that Chinese audiences expect to watch more Pakistani movies, and the event will further deepen the friendship between the two sides. "Last year, China introduced the Pakistani movie Parwaaz Hai Junoon, which tells the story of a Pakistani pilot, manifesting the friendship between China and Pakistan," said Ahmed Farooq, deputy chief of The Mission, Embassy of Pakistan. I want to figure out the different understanding and presentation of romance between Chinese and Pakistani movies," said Tang Zhengming, who watched an opening film on last Wednesday evening.
