This month, history came alive on the silver screen as special film screenings marked the 75th anniversary of the Chinese People's Volunteer Army's entry into the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. Held from October 25 to November 23, the exhibition spanned ten cities across the Chinese mainland and featured over 2,000 screenings, according to the China Film Group Corporation.
Organizers placed great emphasis on serving and reaching out to older audiences. Thanks to effective marketing by the China Film Group Corporation, dedicated screenings for seniors drew crowds eager to experience films like the “The Volunteers” trilogy.
For many attendees, these screenings were more than just a film—they were opportunities to reconnect with a defining chapter in their shared history, exchange personal memories, and ensure that the lessons of courage and sacrifice continue to resonate. As younger generations explore immersive storytelling and real-world impact, this model of community-focused programming offers inspiration for cultural events worldwide.
