The 10th Vietnam Film Festival was held from November 9 to November 14, 1993, in Haiphong, Vietnam, with the slogan: "For an advanced Vietnam cinema, imbued with national identity" (Vietnamese: "Vì một nền điện ảnh Việt Nam tiên tiến, đậm đà bản sắc dân tộc").
The phenomenon of fans of artists, waiting for autographs, taking photos together has begun to spread more widely among different audiences.
This is considered a "characteristic" film festival for the period of "market - commercial cinema".
The jury awarded only one Golden Lotus for "Vị đắng tình yêu" - A feature film that harmoniously combines artistic and commercial elements, and one Golden Lotus for the documentary "Đi tìm đồng đội".
There is no Golden Lotus for animated and direct-to-video feature films.
