After attending the festival, I realized that the independent short films in China are usually student's film or graduation film. Most of the directors set "feature movie" as the standard of career and try hard to seek amount of investment for their first start. This tradition is quite distinct when comparing to Hong Kong. Moreover, mentoring system in is popular in Chinese film industry. The success of the film depends on the stream of the director and their academic background.
