Online cinema Amediateka held a grand premiere of “Chinese Lessons” in the Oktyabr cinema.

After the red carpet, where celebrities shone, guests, actors and producers were treated to Oktyabr, which had turned into a real Chinese quarter. Every detail of the interior was thought out to the smallest detail, creating the atmosphere of a lively square during a traditional fair.

Announcements in Chinese and Russian were periodically heard to the rhythms of the DJ set, inviting viewers to learn new words and get acquainted with the ancient wisdom of the Celestial Empire. And in the cinema hall itself, a performance show unfolded – a mesmerizing dance of a giant Chinese dragon, known as lundeng (龙灯).

The walls shimmered with dozens of glowing hieroglyphs, and the mythical dragon rushed between the rows, playing with the audience. For the first time, the Oktyabr hall resembled a fashionable club, filled to capacity: almost one and a half thousand people gathered for the premiere.
