As China’s<\/span> only A-list film festival, SIFF has long served as a major platform for Chinese-language cinema and emerging talents across Asia<\/span>. Guided by the principles of “Asian, Chinese Film, and New Talents,” this year’s festival is expected to feature around 60 Chinese-language films, spanning competition entries, premieres, and restored classics.<\/p>\n

The Golden Goblet Awards continue to grow in global stature, setting a new record this year. The five competition sections received over 3,900 submissions from 119 countries and regions. Of those, more than 2,800 films entered competition, with notable increases in entries from the Americas and Africa<\/span>. Short film submissions rose 18% year-over-year.<\/p>\n

This year also boasts the highest premiere rate in SIFF history: over 1,820 films hold world premiere status, and more than 520 will have their international premiere, pushing the combined premiere rate above 80%.<\/p>\n

The international jury panel includes 21 members from 13 countries and regions across Asia<\/span>, Africa<\/span>, the Americas, and Europe<\/span>. Italian director and screenwriter Giuseppe Tornatore<\/span>, the president of the jury this year, stated:<\/p>\n

“A film festival is not just a celebration of cinema; it’s an opportunity for people from different nations to come together, exchange ideas, and appreciate exceptional films. I’m honored to serve as a juror at SIFF and to enjoy these incredible works alongside my fellow jury members in Shanghai<\/span>.”<\/p>\n

This year’s edition also introduces several firsts: the merger of the SIFF Film Market with the Shanghai<\/span> TV Festival’s market to form a unified International Film and TV Market; the launch of the “Asia Now” section highlighting regional perspectives.<\/p>\n

Tickets for the 27th SIFF go on sale at noon on June 5<\/span>. Following SIFF, the Shanghai<\/span> TV Festival will run from June 23 to June 27<\/span>.<\/p>\n
