Cinema of China

The Chinese-language cinema has three distinct historical threads: Cinema of Hong Kong, Cinema of China, and Cinema of Taiwan. After 1949 and until recent times, the cinema of mainland China operated under restrictions imposed by the Communist Party of China. Some films with political overtones are still censored or banned in China itself. However, most of these films are allowed to be shown abroad in commercially distributed theaters or in film festivals.

Currently, the vast majority of the Mainland-produced movies uses Standard Mandarin. Mainland films are often dubbed into Cantonese when exported to Hong Kong for theatrical runs.
