Vietnam Film Festival chronology

The 20th Vietnam Film Festival was held from November 24 to November 28, 2017, in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, with the slogan "Building a modern and humane film industry" (Vietnamese: "Xây dựng nền công nghiệp điện ảnh hiện đại và nhân văn").[1]

Event

[edit]

The 20th Vietnam Film Festival reunites with the coastal city of Da Nang after 29 years since the 8th Vietnam Film Festival (1988). And for the first time in the history of the Vietnam Film Festival, the Feature Film category was absent from the state film line.[2]

This festival has a number of changes, such as removing the direct-to-video feature film category because it is outdated; established the ASEAN Film Awards to honor works in the region. 10 countries in Southeast Asia have brought to the festival international award-winning films, enriching this playground.

4 Golden Lotus awards were given in each category: Feature, Documentary, Science and Animated, along with the Best Film in ASEAN Film Awards. This year, the award for the most favourite film voted by the audience were only for Panorama Program.[3]

Participation

[edit]

The cinematographic works participating in the 20th Vietnam Film Festival must be Vietnamese-language films produced by Vietnamese cinema establishments or in cooperation with foreign organizations and individuals and must be free from copyright disputes. Only films licensed from October 11, 2015, to September 10, 2017, will be registered. In special cases, the organizers will flexibly consider.

Remake films can compete and participate in all programs of the event, but cannot compete in the "Best Screenplay" and "Best Film" categories (the Lotus Award).[4]

The Film Festival Selection Board has selected 129 films of all types, from 34 film production units across the country. There were 16 feature films, 26 documentaries, 17 scientific films and 18 animated films. In addition, there are 12 feature films and 10 documentaries in the program "Panorama Cinema". The film "Dạ cổ hoài lang" represents Vietnamese cinema to compete for the ASEAN Film Award. This year, the organizers do not prescribe specific points for each Golden Lotus and Silver Lotus awards. Judges will score from high to low to find the best work.[5][6]

In addition, 20 films have made the history of Vietnamese revolutionary cinema, from "Chung một dòng sông" (1959), "Chị Tư Hậu" (1963), "Nổi gió" (1966) to "Tôi thấy hoa vàng trên cỏ xanh" (2015) will be screened to serve the audience during the festival. The audience will see once-loved films such as "Mẹ vắng nhà", "Vị đắng tình yêu", "Em bé Hà Nội", "Bao giờ cho đến tháng Mười", "Tướng về hưu", "Ngã ba Đồng Lộc", etc.[7]
