A total of 54 Chinese films, from action blockbusters to low-budget comedies, have been selected for an official screening event meant to tap into the overseas market.

This year's Beijing Screenings will host more than 70 buyers, producers, distributors, investors and critics from over 11 countries and regions, including the United States, France, Italy and Russia, according to the film bureau under the State General Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television.

The annual event, scheduled to run from Sept. 2 to 5, is in its 17th year and is sponsored by the bureau.

Selected titles include dramedy "Finding Mr. Right," starring acclaimed actress Tang Wei, who shot to fame in Ang Lee's 2007 spy thriller "Lust, Caution," gangster flick "Drug War," and "Full Circle," a feel-good comedy about nursing home residents' efforts to enter a TV talent show.

This year's event will also include two forums, one on the topic of China and foreign cooperation in the animated film industry, and another on how to connect Chinese films with the overseas market.
