      The 15th Beijing International Film Festival launched its screening program on Friday, showcasing a diverse selection of nearly 300 outstanding films from China and around the world.

      The screenings, which take place from April 18 to 27, feature 18 curated programs with approximately 900 showings.

      Film enthusiasts can enjoy this cinematic showcase at 33 partner cinemas and one immersive cinema across the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, held alongside the festival's main events.

      "I first attended in 2018. This year I'm seeing the most films. I've already bought 20 tickets," said Zhang Jierui, an avid moviegoer.

      Building on the successful experiences of previous years, this year's program introduces innovative thematic sections and special curations to commemorate the 130th anniversary of the first film in the world and the 120th anniversary of the first Chinese film.

      "We've already secured 16 of the latest films from the recent Berlin International Film Festival for inclusion in this year's Beijing Film Festival screening program," said Lin Siwei, deputy secretary-general of the Beijing International Film Festival Organizing Committee.

      Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva met with visiting Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Brasilia on Wednesday, expressing the willingness to strengthen bilateral ties and expand cooperation.

      Lula said that Brazil and China have built strong mutual trust and deepened cooperation across various fields, showing that Brazil's steadfast friendship with China is the right choice and a model for South-South cooperation.

      He said that he looks forward to maintaining close high-level exchanges with China, further strengthening economic and trade ties, and expanding the mutually beneficial cooperation in finance, energy and other fields.

      China's firm and forceful countermeasures against the "reciprocal tariffs" is admirable, said the Brazilian president, noting that China's just actions have received widespread support while certain country's irresponsible and unilateral practices warrant joint resistance.

      Brazil is willing to work with China to advocate free trade, defend international rules, and counter any power overriding international justice, the president added.

      Wang, who is also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, said that China is willing to work with Brazil to implement the important consensus reached by the two heads of state and push for more outcomes in building a China-Brazil community with a shared future.

      China will strengthen its cooperation with BRICS and Global South countries, adhere to multilateralism and safeguard international rules, he said.

      On the same day, Wang attended the 15th Meeting of BRICS National Security Advisers and High Representatives on National Security in Brasilia.
