A film screening event was organized on Friday in Dadukou district, Chongqing, designed for blind and visually impaired audiences, showcasing how audio descriptions can transform movies into an accessible cultural experience.
The public welfare initiative, which aims to create an inclusive experience by offering narrated descriptions, featured the popular animated film Ne Zha: Birth of the Demon Child. The event was jointly organized by the Chongqing Disabled Persons' Federation and Sichuan International Studies University.
This screening was part of the Listening to Light program launched in 2024. To date, 18 activities have been conducted throughout Chongqing, benefiting approximately 1,700 visually impaired individuals, according to the Chongqing Disabled Persons' Federation.
In addition to the screenings, the event included online book clubs, Mandarin language classes and Braille literacy sessions. Plans are underway to hold at least 30 screenings this year.
