On the occasion of the Lantern Festival, which closed the celebrations for the Chinese New Year of 2023 on Sunday 5 February, the FánHuā Chinese Film Festival presented the three most successful films of the October 2022 edition to the Milan audience.

The event was held under the patronage of the City of Milan, the Chinese Consulate and the Italy China Council Foundation.
At the opening, on Saturday evening at 8.30 p.m., guests and public lingered in the foyer for a toast before entering the auditorium.
In the movie theatre the Cineteca Director Matteo Pavesi introduced the institutional representatives in attendance, Liu Kan, Consul General of the People's Republic of China in Milan, and Isabella Menichini of the Culture Directorate - Entertainment Area representing Councillor Tommaso Sacchi, whose video-message was screened.
Xiuzhong Zhang, President of the FánHuā Chinese Film Festival, explained the aims of the Association’s initiative, thanking the institutions for their support and all those who had contributed to the success in Milan.
The best films from the Festival's 2022 programme were shown in their original version with Italian subtitles and introduced by Paolo Bertolin, the Festival's Artistic Director.
