China News Service, Jinzhong, October 19 (Reporter Hu Jian) ​​The Fifth Pingyao International Film Festival announced various honors on the evening of the 18th, and was praised by the judges as "opening a new path for Chinese science fiction films". "Part" received three honors and became the biggest winner. The tribute short film "The Last Director of the Earth" starring Jia Zhangke and Ning Hao also premiered that night.

  "Universal Exploration Editorial Department" was particularly low-key at this year's film festival. On the first day of the release of the film list, there was no way to check the film's stills and synopsis. Movie fans also referred to watching this film as "open blind box".

The film tells the story of a middle-aged science fiction magazine editor in search of aliens in southwestern China. The film does not lose sight of human emotions in the absurdity. The film won the Fei Mu honor best film and the young jury honor. There are three important honors for the best films and the selection of fans.

Huang Miyi won the Fei Mu honorary best actress at the Fifth Pingyao International Film Festival for his "Street Baby".

  In addition, the "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department" that received Fei Mu's honor for the best film will also receive cash contributions from 10 directors Cheng Er, Chen Sicheng, Diao Yinan, Feng Xiaogang, Guan Hu, Jia Zhangke, Lou Ye, Ning Hao, Wang Xiaoshuai and Zhang Yibai. One million yuan is awarded, of which 500,000 will be used for the development of director Kong Dashan’s next work, and 500,000 will be used for the Chinese release of the film.

  When accepting the award, director Kong Dashan talked about the origins of Pingyao.

"I met Wang Yitong, the screenwriter and starring role of the "Cosmic Exploration Editorial Department" in Pingyao. It was also in Pingyao that I began to brew the script of this movie. Without Pingyao International Film Festival, there would be no such movie. So I decided at that time, in the future. Be sure to bring this movie back to Pingyao." Kong Dashan kept choking in his words.

As a youth reviewer, Wang Junkai awarded the best film for the youth review honor to the "Space Exploration Editorial Department".

  Another very rewarding movie "The Story of Yongan Town" received two awards, Fei Mu's honorary best director and youth jury honorary best director. The judges wrote in the award speech, "Wei Shujun used a relaxed attitude, He proved his great creativity to the audience. Once again joking about film creation, he extended the filmmaker’s introspective perspective to a broader emotional level, caring for a more universal individual existence, and showing a young filmmaker The courage and energy that should be possessed.” Taking this heat, the first feature film "Wild Horse Mane" directed by the director Wei Shujun was also announced on the 19th and November 26th.

  Huang Miyi, who just stepped into the door of the movie, won Fei Mu's Best Actress for his movie "Street Baby", Zou Tao won Fei Mu's Best Actor for his "Day and Night River", and Fei Mu's honorary judgement was awarded to "Venus by the Water".

Roberto Rossellini was awarded the honorary best director to Natesh Hegd, the director of the Indian film "Pedro", and the best film was awarded to the Egyptian film "Feather", "This is an allegorical film. It expresses the tremendous energy of using art to counter reality.” The award ceremony wrote.

  At the beginning of the night of honor, the short film "The Last Director of the Earth" directed by Xu Lei, director of "Sherlock on the Plain", had its world premiere. For the material cultural heritage, the two former directors launched a "fierce competition" for the place of non-genetic inheritors.

The two directors who have often guest starred in their respective films before have really experienced an "actor addiction" this time.

  People in the film industry applauded several times during the viewing process. In their opinion, this short film is more like a "love letter" in tribute to the film.

The film is full of ridicule about the decline of the film, and there is a trace of sadness under the absurdity.

The two directors seem to be competing, but they express the kind of love that people still have for movies in their twilight years.

On the afternoon of the 19th, a charity screening of the short film will be held to the public, and the donations will be used for flood relief work in Pingyao.
