A Chinese film event kicked off on Sunday at the National Theater of Yangon, Myanmar, featuring the screening of "Blue Planet Outside the Window (SHENZHOU 13)," China's first documentary filmed in space.
The event, jointly organized by the China Cultural Center in Yangon, China Media Group (CMG), and Myanma Radio and Television (MRTV), aims to provide a new platform for China-Myanmar cultural exchange and to promote interaction between Chinese and Myanmar youth.
"Blue Planet Outside the Window" is China’s first 8K space documentary filmed in orbit. The film captures astronauts’ extraordinary six-month mission aboard the space station, highlighting both the breathtaking beauty of the universe and the routines of daily life in space. Many viewers in Myanmar expressed admiration for the documentary’s vivid and engaging storytelling.
"Through the documentary 'Blue Planet Outside the Window,' we can learn a lot about space knowledge. China's space technology is rapidly developing. I hope our students will be inspired by it and achieve success in the space field in the future," said Sin Ma Kyaung, a Myanmar viewer.
During the event, the China Cultural Center in Yangon will host multiple free screenings, bringing a variety of high-quality Chinese films to the Myanmar public.
