The summer film festival scene is looking to be quite the adventure this year, particularly for the 16th edition of the New York Asian Film Festival. The official line-up has already been announced ahead of the festival’s Film Society launch on June 30 with tickets going on sale next week and the NYAFF released a mini teaser to stir the hype some.
North America’s leading festival of popular Asian cinema will showcase 57 feature films, including 3 International Premieres, 21 North American Premieres, 4 U.S. Premieres, and 15 films making their New York City debuts. The festival will feature in-person appearances by more than 20 international filmmakers and celebrity guests from mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and Southeast Asia.
