Opening of the 2015 Oriental Film Week

The Oriental Film Week is an annual extracurricular activity organized by the Department of Oriental Studies during the first semester for students who love films, both inside and outside the university. Here, students can see the cultural colors of various countries through films from Japan, Korea, China, Thailand, and India.

Speaking about the significance of the program, Mr. Pham Hoang Hung, on behalf of the Party Committee - Dean's Board of the Faculty of Oriental Studies, and Head of the Film Club, shared: The Oriental Film Week is organized to welcome the students of the K60 cohort. This is also an opportunity for the majors to promote their image and attract students in the faculty through the competition in terms of the appeal of the films.

Teacher Pham Hoang Hung delivered the opening speech for the Oriental Film Week.

The Oriental Film Week is divided into screenings organized by various departments, running from November 6th to November 13th, featuring films from Thailand, India, and South Korea, respectively. The film from the Japanese Studies department has been moved to Friday evening, November 13th. All screenings, from film selection and translation to narration, are handled by third-year students from the Oriental Studies department. This allows them to showcase and improve their foreign language skills in their chosen field.

The team of authors organized the film screening for the Chinese Studies major.

The film "When Children Get Angry," created by a group of Chinese Studies students, tells the story of a boy and his experiences running away from home. With its message about family and pure friendship, the film was very popular among the students. In addition, this year's Eastern Film Week also included a raffle with prizes for lucky attendees.
