Changchun of Northeast China's Jilin province is a city whose development is closely linked to movies, as modern China's first film studio is located here.

Founded on October 1, 1945, Changchun Film Studio (CFS) has produced over 900 feature films, dubbed 1,000 films from other countries.

The Film studio is the birthplace of China's first feature film, first cartoon, first documentary, as well as a series of classics familiar to generations of Chinese audiences. It's dubbed as "the cradle of modern China's film industry."

Many far-reaching movies were born here. War epic "Heroic Sons and Daughters" were produced here in 1964, featuring a story during the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. Adapted from the well-known opera of the same name, feature film "The White-haired Girl" was also produced in the Changchun Film Studio and met the audience on March 11, 1951.

Movies from the studio is not only widely praised in China, but also have been recognized by international film festivals: "Thirteen Princess Trees" garnered the Special Jury Prize at the 19th Tokyo International Film Festival, and "Lucky Dog" was invited to attend the screening unit of the 61st Cannes International Film Festival.

The old studio was rebuilt as the former Site Museum of CFS and it was opened to public on August 19, 2014. The museum introduces the development and pioneering history of modern China's film.
