As the Chinese president, Xi Jinping, heralded a “dawn of a new era” at the Communist Party Congress between 18 and 24 October, 2017; he declared that China inches “closer to center stage” and would soon become “a new option for other countries.” Talks of a new China just four days before the grand opening of the new film festival ushered in the hope that a “new era” might as well be imminent in the independent waters of the Chinese cinema. The most famous contemporary Chinese independent filmmaker, Jia Zhangke, along with film festival veteran, Marco Müller, ceremonially inaugurated Pingyao Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon International Film Festival (PYIFF) on October 28, 2017. The PYIFF was founded to introduce, present, and promote independent cinema, both domestic and international, on Chinese turf.
