By Amanda Scott

The 18th annual Shanghai International Film Festival is set to take place Saturday, June 13th to Sunday, June 21st.  Frequently abbreviated as SIFF, it is one of largest film festivals in Asia. The festival has been held annually since 1993, with the exception of 2003 when the SARS outbreak prevented the festival from taking place. The SIFF is an international platform to promote China’s film industry and to connect with the rest of the world through the art of film.

The award sought after is the ‘Golden Goblet’. Several Golden Goblets are awarded throughout the festival, the most prestigious being Best Feature Film. Other categories included Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Music, amongst many others. The awards are decided by a jury of international veteran film talents. There is also a New Asian Talent Award and a Mobile SIFF award.

The SIFF is divided into 4 main programs: the competition portion in which the Golden Goblet awards are presented; the SIFF Mart, a film trade market; the SIFFORUM, which involves the industries leaders in seminars; and the International Film Panorama, which in years past has attracted more than 300,000 movie-goers viewing screenings of 900 films in 35 Chinese cinemas. Amongst the movies to be screened, all six of the current Star Wars films. With Star Wars latest, The Force Awakens, due out in December, the hope is to gain Chinese audiences.
