Over the past 16 years, the Beijing International Sports Film Week(BISFW) has been continuously expanding in terms of film and television culture and presentation methods, and been committed to disseminating sports culture and Olympic culture to promote an inspiring sports spirit, and encourage people, especially the youth, to participate in sports and experience life.

BISFW’s 16-year development has witnessed its changes from movies to TV, from online videos to micro movies, from one-minute short videos to ten-day short films, from competitive sports to mass fitness, from the red carpet to the community, and from offline to online.

And the 9th initiated the 10-day competition of "My Dream" sports short films. The 11th solicited student works from major universities.
