From a relatively new event, DANAFF – organized by the Vietnam Film Development Promotion Association (VFDA) in collaboration with the Da Nang City People's Committee – has quickly established itself as one of the most prestigious film festivals in the region. With the theme "Bridge to Asia," this year's DANAFF III brings together over 100 films from major film industries such as South Korea, Japan, India, Mongolia, and the Philippines, along with many works making their international premiere.

Not only did DANAFF III achieve outstanding growth in scale and duration, but it also made groundbreaking innovations in content with many highlight programs such as: Half a Century of Vietnamese War Films; Spotlight on Korean Cinema; Project Incubator; Panorama of Asian Cinema; Film Critics' Awards…

Affirming that DANAFF III is gradually contributing to building Vietnam's image as a new cultural and film industry creative center in the region, Ms. Pham Thanh Ha, Chief of Office of the Vietnam Film Promotion Association (VFDA) - representing the organizing committee, said: “We highly appreciate Vinamilk's partnership at DANAFF III - where new ideas are ignited and the creative community is connected. Vinamilk's presence at DANAFF III is clear evidence of the spirit of innovation and creativity that both sides pursue. We believe that when positive values are spread, the community will develop stronger and more sustainably.”

Working together to develop young talent.

Besides honoring outstanding cinematic works and dedicated filmmakers, DANAFF III also serves as a "nursery" for the younger generation of filmmakers through the DANAFF Talents program, where talents can learn from big names in world cinema.

According to representatives of the Vietnam Film Development Promotion Association (VFDA), DANAFF Talents is an initiative launched for the first time after many years of planning. With diverse activities such as "Nurturing Talent" workshops, "Project Incubators," and advanced classes, the program is not only an "academic playground" but also a professional practice space where young filmmakers have the opportunity to present, raise capital, and meet directly with domestic and international production and distribution partners.

Having surpassed hundreds of candidates to become one of the young actors selected to participate in training within the framework of DANAFF III, Duc Manh said that filmmakers and young actors alike need sufficient "nourishment" to develop to their fullest potential. Besides the knowledge acquired and experience gained through practical work, the care and support from the community are also crucial "nourishment" factors that help them reach greater heights and go further.

“I find common ground with Vinamilk in its spirit of continuous innovation and willingness to change, especially since the brand underwent a repositioning. For young people like us, holding a new Vinamilk design in our hands is also a way to express our individuality through the products we consume,” Duc Manh shared.

Also among the selected young talents, actress Diem Quynh shared her surprise at "meeting" a familiar brand that has been a part of her daily life. Not only did it energize her, but the presence of...

Vinamilk also gives her a feeling of companionship and support on her career development journey. “The bond between Vinamilk and my family is so deep that even international brands can't create the same sense of trust. In recent years, I've seen Vinamilk trying to change to become closer to our generation. The brand's presence at today's event is clear evidence of that,” the actress shared.

Alongside academic activities such as seminars, film reviews, and workshops, Vinamilk provided a unique experience for film enthusiasts. Tens of thousands of newly launched yogurt products were given away at outdoor cinemas throughout the event. This was not only a nutritious gift but also a vivid testament to Vinamilk's spirit of innovation and creativity in technology and nutrition.

Products such as low-sugar red apple and goji berry yogurt, pomegranate yogurt, blueberry yogurt, and low-sugar aloe vera yogurt; Vinamilk plant-based yogurt; Green Farm drinking yogurt with lychee and jasmine flavor, and orange and grapefruit flavor; or Probi live probiotics with low-sugar peach flavor… all offer novel flavors and international quality, contributing to an elevated cinematic experience. The combination of art and nutrition not only enriches the event space but also demonstrates Vinamilk's commitment to supporting the film-loving community through practical and creative actions.
