In today's interconnected world, film has become a significant catalyst for cultural exchange among young people across nations. Through the medium of cinema, youth are provided with various avenues to connect, new technical skills to learn and an appreciation of diverse cultures. Film festivals, collaborative projects and international screenings serve as vital platforms for this exchange.

The 14th Beijing International Film Festival brings an end to a grand event filled with anticipation. We invite reporters who interviewed different juries and students from Beijing Film Academy to share their experiences of this year's film festival and their thoughts on films in the future.
