The screening was part of a series of activities titled as "Meeting Jiangnan (south of the Yangtze River) in Beijing", which runs until Jan 20.

"We are impressed by the city's distinctive cultural charm and its creative characteristics," said Sun, adding that she wished to enhance such cooperation to introduce more of China's traditional culture to the world.
