The first event of the Shaoxing "Cinema of Light" public welfare project was held on Jan 26 at Lu Xun Cinema, screening an audio-described version of the fantasy film The Yinyang Master for visually impaired attendees, with professional narration that outlined the film's world and emotional depth, helping the audience "see" through sound.

Volunteers provided full assistance, including guidance, free transportation, seating support, and detailed explanations. Complementary services such as free haircuts and massages were also offered, integrating thoughtful care into every detail of the experience.

Shaoxing will continue to expand its service reach and refine the participant experience of this city-wide public welfare campaign, ensuring the light of culture and care reaches every corner.
