The experts also thought the China-initiated Asia Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) had made great contributions to the development of the global economy.

It is crucial for economic entities to build global partnerships, and China is ready to take its share of responsibilities and help share its prosperity with other countries, according to the three movies. 

In addition, the picturesque scenery of cities in China was also featured, including Hangzhou, the host city of G20, Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong.

The G20 movies will be shown on the screen until Sept 8.
