Our Story

GUFA is the collective global response to the call of the world’s talented young.

GUFA builds on the success of the Global Chinese Universities Student Film and Television Festival (GCU), which was initiated by the Academy of Film, School of Communication of Hong Kong Baptist University in 2002. GCU is well recognized as an iconic university film event that fosters a collaborative relationship among film professionals, scholars and students in Hong Kong and those in the Greater China region.

Since 2002, GCU has steadily gained recognition from tertiary institutions from home and abroad. In 2016, GCU introduced the Foreign Category to its short film competition in view of the Festival’s growing popularity among the non-Chinese overseas film schools, and foreign entries were invited to compete for three Foreign Awards. Over the years, the Festival’s star-studded award ceremonies have been broadcast by major Hong Kong television networks, including TVB, ATV, RTHK and ViuTV, and online platforms.

Extending the award coverage to the whole world, in 2018, GCU is reborn and rebranded to become the Global University Film Awards amidst a growing international recognition of the wealth of creative talents of university students from around the world in movie production.
