China concludes international film festival amid market recovery
China wrapped up the Shanghai International Film Festival on Sunday, sending a positive signal that the world's second-largest film market is making a steady recovery.
With much of the world in the grip of COVID-19, the 23rd SIFF was something of a rarity among category-A film festivals, as most foreign festivals were postponed or shifted their main events online.
The SIFF was shorn of the star-studded red carpet and awards ceremony, with nominees for its two major film awards announced but no winners selected. However, the nine-day event still screened 320 Chinese and foreign movies, bringing more than 147,500 viewers into the city's cinemas.
