The 2023 Da Nang International Film Festival (DIFF) was successfully organized by the Da Nang administration, with generous funding provided by Sun Group, a prominent multi-sectoral conglomerate in Vietnam.
“The festival has concluded, however, the city’s dreams and ambitions persist and will continue to be fostered and shared,” stated Le Trung Chinh, Chairman of the Da Nang administration, as he concluded the international event.
We are committed to ensuring the well-being and happiness of every citizen through our dedicated efforts.
“We are committed to transforming Da Nang into a thriving and secure metropolis, while also fostering a sustainable and environmentally-friendly living environment.”
With the chosen theme, the local government aims to emphasize the importance of global connectivity and unity. They seek to bring countries closer together, bridging geographical distances, and fostering a shared desire for peace, love, and prosperity.
The inaugural DIFF took place in 2008 and was subsequently held every three years until transitioning to an annual event starting in 2017.
