Comprising 20 groups of artists and performers from home and abroad, the fourth edition of the eclectic event features an array of works in genres such as drama, documentary, illustration, installation, photography, and concert and dance performance.
Themed “Creator: Story,” this year’s festival comprises four exhibitions—“Dream,” “Mission,” “Persistence” and “Value”—to signify the four steps of the creative process.
