“Vietnam - a new destination for blockbusters” will be a key theme of the popularisation campaign of the Vietnamese movie at the festival. The most impressive photo of Trang An-Tam Coc-Bich Dong natural scenic site, Ha Long Bay and Son Doong Cave will be printed on large banners located in front of the Majestic Barriere Hotel, which normally accommodates famous film actors and actresses, directors and filmmakers.
Besides attending Cannes Film Festival, Vietnam also organises Vietnamese movie week in Spain.
