The 2015 Village Voice Best Film Festival award winner is back! The 15th edition of the New York Asian Film Festival will feature a full plate of unhinged, genre-bending films, brisk and intelligent entertainment, and uncompromising art-house gems that will satiate all appetites, wholesome and otherwise. Poised to be the summer’s hottest event, the festival will tantalize, shock, and excite with a handpicked crop of disquieting noir, gonzo gangster action, dark romance, and sharp political works that showcase the vibrant range of talent from China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. The NYAFF will also celebrate its coming-of-age with special retrospective screenings of some of the founders’ and programmers’ favorite works.
The opening night gala is the World Premiere of Kazuya Shiraishi’s Japanese crime epic Twisted Justice and the closing gala is the International Premiere of Adam Tsuei’s The Tenants Downstairs from Taiwan.
All in all the NYAFF will screen 51-film festival features & spotlights on the cinemas of Hong Kong, South Korean, and Southeast Asia.
