China News Service, Nanjing, November 14 (Reporter Zhu Xiaoying) On the 13th, the 2026 China Film Performing Arts Week, sponsored by the China Film Performing Arts Society and the Propaganda Department of the Nanjing Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, opened at the Nanjing Crossing River Victory Memorial Hall.

This year's China Film and Performing Arts Week focuses on commemorating the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army's Long March. Focusing on the theme of "Film·Performance·Inheritance", it organizes sections such as "Theme Opening Ceremony, Patriotism Education, Filmmakers in Nanjing, and Filmmakers Entering Campus" to deeply integrate the inheritance of film performing arts, the dissemination of red classics, and public cultural participation with Nanjing's urban cultural display.

At the opening ceremony, many artists who participated in Long March-themed film and television works took the stage. Combining their character-building experiences, they shared the past of red film shooting, and talked about their understanding and insights of the spirit of the Long March.

This year’s China Film and Performing Arts Week has announced the first 10 “Filmmakers’ Homes” spots in Nanjing. The platform will provide filming and docking supporting services for film and television teams visiting Nanjing, create a creative exchange station for filmmakers, and carry out various light and shadow cultural activities for the public. During the art week, a series of activities such as "Jasmine Blossoms and Enjoying Ning - Filmmakers in Nanjing" will also be launched.
