Shanghai is recognized as the birthplace of Chinese films. The unique and inclusive urban cultural temperament has made it set milestones one after another in the history of Chinese film development. If the legend of light and shadow has been talked about in the streets and alleys of this city, then the driving force of daring to be the first in the world and exploring the better development of the film industry is engraved in the genes of this city.
Filmmakers look forward to a communication platform, and film fans look forward to a feast of light and shadow. The establishment of the Shanghai International Film Festival is a response to the deep genes of this city.

Five years after Wu Yigong, Xie Jin and many other directors first put forward the idea that "China should also hold an international film festival", in October 1993, the first Shanghai International Film Festival was held as expected. With a flick of a finger, you will stand at thirty, not forgetting where you came from, and knowing where you are going.
We still remember the founding purpose of the year: to enhance mutual understanding and friendship among film professionals from various countries and regions, and to promote the prosperity of world film art. Now every film festival, thousands of high-quality films from home and abroad actively sign up to participate in the exhibition, which has already made the dreams of the "pioneers" come true.
We have never forgotten the great wish we once made: May the film festival accommodate the carnival of movie fans and become a festival for the people. Every time, Shanghai, which is brightly lit and radiant, is a paradise for movie lovers. Even when rushing frantically between different movie theaters, under the sweat-drenched shirt, what flows is full of happiness and thoughts.
Yes, if you never forget, there will be echoes. How long have you accompanied the 30-year journey of the Shanghai International Film Festival? In the days of walking together, have you ever placed your pious love, light and shadow beliefs on a small object?
We will plan and hold "Thirty "Light" Years——Shanghai International Film Festival Thirty Years Exhibition", and invite everyone who loves movies to participate—we will solicit from movie fans the past 30 years, with Shanghai International Film Festival Relevant and commemorative and collectible objects, such as: old ticket stubs, group photos, autograph books, movie viewing manuals, peripheral souvenirs, etc.
We believe that behind each object is a period of youth, a wonderful story that does not lose to the movies. We hope that when you submit the object information, you will also tell your story of light and shadow, and tell the relationship between you and the Shanghai International Film Festival.
These objects will be displayed on the online official channels of the Shanghai International Film Festival, and share your wonderful stories; we will also select representative objects from them and display them during the 25th Shanghai International Film Festival Exhibited offline.
