THE ASIAN AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (AAIFF) premiered in the summer of 1978 in New York City answering a growing need for social understanding, cultural diversity in American life, and independent cinema. AAIFF is the first festival in the U.S. to showcase the film and video work by artists of the Asian Diaspora. Thirty-seven years later, the AAIFF has grown to include films and video from more than 30 countries, a variety of topical panels and workshops, industry mixers, staged readings, exclusive interviews, receptions and more. Films of Asians, by Asians or for Asians all qualify. See below the films we believe in, the topics we respond to, and the company you keep:
