The Film Open Class is a cornerstone of the core forum series of the 16th Beijing International Film Festival (BJIFF). Designed to meet the needs of China's growing film industry, the Open Class focuses on the technical systems and historical heritage of key filmmaking crafts. By inviting seasoned professionals in cinematography, performance, film theory, and other fields, the Film Open Class will take the form of thematic lectures and dialogues, analyzing classic works and sharing creative experiences. They aim to provide a knowledge exchange platform for film practitioners, students, and cinephiles alike, building a public education space that deeply links academia, industry, and practice.
