More than 800 residents from 24 villages in Huairou in suburban Beijing gathered at a plaza to watch two Olympic-themed films on Saturday.
At the same time, nearly 10 million moviegoers nationwide watched the same two films, including the survivors of quake-hit Sichuan Province, the website QQ.com reported.
The event was an important part of the fourth Beijing International Sports Film Week under this year's theme "Experience the civilization and enjoy the Olympic Games."
With the introduction of digital technology, the cost of screening movies has become less expensive. This year, event organizers decided to show films in rural areas as public cultural events. More and more villagers now will be able to see movies in front of their homes with the aid of mobile movie teams, the report said.
