Large Medium SmallA ceremony was held on May 9 to launch the fifth volume of Youth Film Handbook magazine at China Agricultural University.
The latest volume offers insights into 20 years of Chinese queer films, focusing on homosexuality and stereotypes related to the gay-lesbian community.
Cheng Qingsong, a film critic and chief editor of the magazine, says although homosexuality is still a sensitive topic in the country, many movies with the theme have played important roles in the Chinese film history.
The editors spent six months collecting data and conducting in-depth interviews with filmmakers involved in queer movies.
Initiated in 2007, Youth Film Handbook is a movie magazine featuring independent movie reviews and interviews with directors.
