Film Promotion Law

The Film Promotion Law was approved by the central government in 2016 and came into effect on March 1, 2017. It is the first set of laws and regulations targeting China's cultural industry.

The aim of the law includes promoting the film industry and socialist values in China and regulating the domestic film market.

The law set clear regulations on the following problems in film industry: box office cheats, illegal recordings of films shown in theaters, the social and moral standards of cast and crew, improper screening scheduling and commercials during screening.

The law states that theaters should reasonably allocate showing schedules for domestic productions and that no less than two-thirds of all screening times should be dedicated to domestic productions each year.
