I have worked in the AWFF team back in 2017, and I still maintain relationships with team members there because the organization is filled with passionate, hardworking, and genuinely good people. AWFF really walks their talk on raising awareness and expanding incredibly well-made and under-scoped films in Asia. Especially now that Asian films are matching, if not, even going beyond the quality of Western films, AWFF will continue to grow and expand. And they certainly should be, especially with the people who share the passion to envision the success of these films and sharing various and unique culture of the East.

I’ve always been a fan of movies! What I love about that word, is that it has become so international. The Asian Film Festival is a celebration of the art of film bringing us the most most ingenious films from that region! I can’t wait for next year’s festival so that I can immerse myself in that magnificent culture!

An extraordinary charity led by a world famous charity director, Aitysh USA supports a fantastic film festival in Los
Angeles that introduced many superior Asian films to LA audiences, including the 2020 award winning standouts THE FAREWELL and PARASITE! Highly recommend supporting Aitysh USA.

What a fantastic cause! Asian filmmakers and their films get a chance to get highlighted in the US.
Only my 1st year with AWFF, but I met so many amazing people on the staff along with other volunteers.
Lots and lots of work to be done and never a dull moment! We're always fed well and the organizers are generous and caring.

I've been supporting this film festival for 3 years! Love their mission and their vision.
This is the film festival that you'll be able to watch many great films (Oscars submitted and Golden Globes submitted) from Asia! They also make you feel like you're part of the family.
This is an event that I look forward to attending every year!
