Filming East Festival is growing not only in size but is also developing into a year round presence which is leading the way in Chinese film exhibition and international cooperation programmes, including the innovative and impressive BAFTA Global Weekend. FEF is already recognised as the largest Chinese film festival in the UK.

In 2009, FEF presents a prestigious and unique opportunity to sponsor The 3rd Filming East Festival.  This partnership incorporates an association with our high-profile celebration of film from China brimming with talented filmmakers.  Not only does this partnership offer outstanding branding and accreditation rights, there are key hospitality opportunities over this very special week in London and more other cities in the South East England.

By showcasing Chinese cinema at variety of venues, we aim to bring the UK and Chinese film industries together under one roof, to learn more about each other and to focus on established and emerging Chinese talent, be it in front of or behind the camera.
