The "Golden Flower Award" Beijing International Children's Film Festival, supported by the Children's Science and Education Committee of China's largest Children's Culture and Arts Promotion Association, was held in 2018. Now it has become the largest children's film festival in China. Partners in the Asian market are invited to recommend excellent films to promote cultural exchanges, cooperation and distribution. This year, we will expand the number of screening and forum exchange activities of young filmmakers to other venues on the basis of past successes. Launch richer and more meaningful new projects, such as public services in mountain villages and campus screening.

The Beijing International Children's Film Festival is a non-profit film festival supported by the Red Cross Foundation of China. The 2022 Film Festival is open to films from all over the world. More than 100 films were screened, with more than 5 million young people and children watching online. "Child friendly" offline screenings were held in Chinese cinemas, schools and art centers. At the same time, round tables, art exhibitions, drinking parties and other activities were held

Public services: The expenses of the film festival are used for organizing activities, and in cooperation with the Red Cross Society and other foundations, the festival donates film watching activities and cultural facilities for disabled children and left behind children.

In 2023, the BRICS competition unit will be added, which will be supported by TV BRICS. BRICS countries will select 5 awards and hold special screening activities
