Following the success of the 2019 French Film Week, the ACCE continued to develop the National Film Week series of events. In 2020, despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the ACCE successfully held the 2020 Italian Film Week in Qingdao with the strong support of the Qingdao government and professionals who work in the film industry. The event was divided into several sections, including film screenings, film poster exhibitions, and concerts of film music. In the post-pandemic era, the ACCE is actively addressing the challenges, promoting cultural exchanges and cooperation between China and Europe and promoting film culture. In the world of light and shadow, the ACCE tries to ensure the achievement of a dream of cinema that both the filmmakers and the cinephiles aspire to.
