Prestigious accolades are given to tellers of outstanding stories through motion pictures, Xing Wen and Hu Meidong report in Xiamen, Fujian province.

       

The winners of 21 awards at the 37th China Film Golden Rooster Awards, one of the most prestigious industry honors in the country, were announced on the evening of Nov 16 in Xiamen in East China's Fujian province.

The Best Feature Film Award went to Article 20, a film about how prosecutors and ordinary people come together to fight for social justice.

Directed by Zhang Yimou, the film takes its name from Article 20 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China, which focuses on the legal concept of justifiable self-defense. Drawing from such real-life cases, the film explores the conflicts and equilibrium among human nature, morality, and the law. It has captured broad interest, and won praises from the jury for showcasing the country's legal progress.

Lei Jiayin won the Best Actor Award for his role as a prosecutor in the movie. Back in September, also in Xiamen, Lei received the Outstanding Actor Award at the 34th Flying Apsaras Awards for his performance in the TV series A Lifelong Journey.

During his acceptance speech for the Best Actor Award, Lei thanked Lyu Xiaohe, a veteran in the film industry who won the Best Actor Award at the fifth Golden Rooster Awards for his role in the movie Wreaths at the Foot of the Mountain (1984).
