Russian animation producer Yulia Osetinskaya has hailed China's Ne Zha 2 as a groundbreaking achievement in modern filmmaking, citing its technical mastery and artistic vision as benchmarks for global animators. The SMF Studio general producer, with over two decades of industry experience, emphasized the film's significance during a recent interview in Moscow.
"Few productions leave me speechless these days, but Ne Zha 2 redefines what's possible in animation," Osetinskaya stated. She particularly praised the film's intricate details – from lifelike fabric textures to dynamic hair movement – as evidence of China's rapid technological advancement in the sector.
The endorsement comes as Chinese cultural exports gain momentum in 2025, with the film industry playing a pivotal role. Industry analysts note that collaborations between Chinese studios and international partners like SMF Studio could reshape global animation trends, particularly in merging cutting-edge technology with cultural storytelling.
