Vietnam – Japan Cooperate with Growing Film Industries
On May 12, the seminar “Japanese film industry – success stories and co-production prospects with Vietnam” was held within the framework of the 1st Da Nang Asian Film Festival 2023 (DANAFF I) . Associate Professor-Dr. Bui Hoai Son, Standing Member of the National Assembly’s Committee on Culture and Education, said that the seminar is a very meaningful event, especially in the context that the two countries are celebrating 50 years of establishment of diplomatic relations (1973-2023) and the Vietnam National Assembly has just promulgated the amended Law on Cinema defining film as an important cultural industry. According to Ass.Prof-Dr. Bui Hoai Son, film has become an important international communication tool, bringing diverse aesthetic and cultural values to audiences around the world. Japanese film industry is a bright spot with many impressive works that have been welcomed and recognized globally. Delegates participated in the discussion at the seminar. (Photo: VNA)
