欧盟电影展（中国）由欧盟驻华代表团主办，由总策展人Peter Sallade与联络顾问Gianluigi Perrone监制。一直以来都致力于将优秀的欧洲电影带给广大中国观众。2015年恰逢中欧建交40周年，第八届欧盟电影展也将启动遍布全国的放映活动。躬逢盛会，本届影展将有超过40部来自欧盟全部28个成员国的杰出电影将在北京、成都、深圳和济南的影院和文化中心上映。

 

本届影展的参展影片阵容强大，包括了获得奥斯卡最佳外语片的《修女艾达》）（波兰），一种关注”单元大奖的《白色上帝》（匈牙利），获得奥斯卡提名的《金橘》（爱沙尼亚），《海洋之歌》（爱尔兰），《艾琳熊和赛娜鼠》（比利时），荣获多个奖项的《牛仔》（克罗地亚），以及众星云集的惊悚片《最高通缉犯》（德国）等等。今年的参展电影涵盖了多部15年戛纳电影节金棕榈奖获奖和提名电影《流浪的迪潘》（法国），众筹拍摄的爆红网络短片《功之怒》（瑞典），维姆·文德斯的经典之作《柏林苍穹下》（德国）。此外，还将于12月展映数部本年度戛纳电影节获奖佳片。从动画电影到纪录片、喜剧到闹剧，各形各色的欧洲精彩电影将献给中国观众，也献给中欧建交40年的重要时刻。

 

本届欧盟电影展不仅仅有优质影片，还有远道而来的嘉宾朋友。本届影展有幸请到了《白色上帝》导演凯内尔·穆德卢佐，《功之怒》的导演及主演大卫·桑德伯格等外宾，还有来自中国电影行业的杰出电影人。嘉宾朋友们将出席放映会和大型活动，电影从业人、学生和其他观众将有机会与他们面对面接触。

 

2015年欧盟电影展期待能为中欧之间的对话提供渠道。欧洲电影业越来越强调交流的重要性，这涵盖了朋友、家人、恋人间的对话，社会与个体间的对话，欧洲国家间的对话，以及欧洲与世界的对话。由此，我们希望，借由电影搭建起一座文化和艺术对话的桥梁，促进中国观众和欧洲电影人的交流，进而促进中国与欧洲的交流与对话。

The 2015 European Union Film Festival in China, organized by the Delegation of the European Union to China, is proud to celebrate the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the European Union and China. This special 8th edition will take place across the country, in movie theaters and cultural venues in Beijing, Chengdu, Shenzhen, and Jinan. Over 40 features and shorts from all 28 EU Member States have been selected to showcase the finest in contemporary European cinema.

 

Films to watch out for include Academy Award-winner Ida (Poland), Cannes’ Un Certain Regard winner White God (Hungary), Academy award-nominated Tangerines (Estonia), Song of the Sea (Ireland), and Ernest and Celestine (Belgium), award-winning crowd-pleaser Cowboys (Croatia), star-studded thriller A Most Wanted Man (Germany), and more. This year’s line-up ranges from the 2015 Cannes Film Festival Palme d’Or winner Dheepan (France) and instant crowd-funded hit Kung Fury (Sweden) to Wim Wenders’s beloved classic Wings of Desire (Germany). From animation to documentary, comedy to drama, a wide array of European films will be screened in celebration of this special year.

 

Special guests at the festival include the director of White God Kornél Mundruczó coming for the opening, director and star of Kung Fury David Sandberg coming for the closing, and distinguished members of the Chinese film industry present throughout. Visiting filmmakers will be present at various screenings and events, where fellow filmmakers, students, and audiences will have a chance to engage with one another.

 

Indeed, the 2015 EU Film Festival looks towards creating a certain dialogue. After all, European cinema has demonstrated a constant emphasis on the importance of dialogue. This includes personal conversations between friends, family, and lovers; dialogues between individuals and society; and exchanges between the European nations as well as Europe and the world. In this case, we hope that, through film, a cultural and artistic dialogue can emerge and continue—perhaps first between audience members and filmmakers and then, ultimately, between the EU and China.

 

The official opening will commence on September 29th, with announcements from the European Union Ambassador and special guests. Thereafter, films will be screened at Broadway MOMA in Beijing (Sept 29-Oct 11), Broadway and Stellar Cinemas in Chengdu (Oct 14-21), Broadway Cinemas in Shenzhen (Oct 25-30), and Broadway Cinemas in Jinan (Nov 2-6).

 

Cultural center screenings in Beijing will take place throughout the month of October at the Institut Français (Oct 12-16), Embassy of Estonia (18-20), Cervantes Institute (21-24), Hungarian Cultural Institute (25), Italian Cultural Institute (27-29), and Embassy of Poland (30-31). For those unable to make the screenings in Beijing, a selection of films will be viewable as part of the EU Online Film Festival, organized in cooperation with iQiyi.
