Between the 25th and 28th of February, the Nordic diplomatic missions in Beijing co-hosted with Danish Culture Center a film festival titled “Nordic Cinema Art Week: Sustainable Stories”, with an emphasis on cinema presenting Nordic values and ideas on environmental protection and sustainability.

Iceland´s contribution was the 2018 “Women at War” ( Ice. Kona fer í stríð), a comedy-drama film written, produced and directed by Benedikt Erlingsson, and starring Halldóra Geirharðsdóttir. The film received an ovation and good remarks by the audience.
