To celebrate the Mid-Autumn and National Day festivals, the All-China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese recently launched a project to distribute 10,000 digital movie tickets for free to overseas Chinese.
The tickets can be used on Smart Cinema, a mobile cinema app, to watch nine popular Chinese films between Sept 18 and Oct 15. As of August, Smart Cinema has digitally "screened" over 170 Chinese films in more than 20 countries and regions, including the United States, Canada, South Korea and Italy.
The lineup highlights the revolutionary epic 1921, which is set in the title year when the Communist Party of China was founded; the sports film Never Stop, which recounts the story of a legendary sprinter; and the documentary The Magicial Craftmanship of Suzhou.
Besides, Model, an award-wining film about Chinese students' striving overseas, and The Day We Lit Up the Sky, China's first youth musical film, are also available.
