33 Postcards reaches 8000 Chinese screens

The Australian-Chinese co-production, 33 Postcards, “will be released in every cinema in China,” Minister for the Arts, George Souris has announced.

At approximately 8000 screens, it’s a massive audience for the film, with China one of the largest cinema markets in the world. The film will be released in a Mandarin version on Friday 2 September.

“33 Postcards is only one of a handful of Australian films ever to break into the Chinese cinema circuit as only a small number of foreign films are released there each year,” said Minister Souris.

Shot both in NSW and Hengdian World Studios in China, it was produced by Portal Pictures and Zhejiang Hengdian Film Productions, in association with IFS Capital Limited and Screen NSW who invested $200,000 in the film.
