ACAMIS FILM FESTIVAL 2026

The Western Academy of Beijing is proud to be the host of this year’s ACAMIS ONLINE FILM FESTIVAL.

The festival will showcase works from over twenty member schools, and we are expecting to receive over a hundred entries. The festival will have prestigious judges from the Chinese film industry, and we promise to pull out all the stops for the final show, where you will see the winners of each category and the winner of the best picture award on March 8th, 2026.

It is almost a given, that students presenting their artwork in their last year of school embody a state of flux, reflective of a community in continuous change. The idea that we are living in a time of unprecedented unrest is, likewise, also not new. The current of change has brought us here, for now. But, of course, we remain in flux—where it will take us next, we cannot fully know.
