Now: NYC’s Asian American International Film Festival

Yes! New York City’s Asian American International Film Festival is in full swing!

Last night, John Sayles‘ Amigo kicked things off and the intensity continues through Sunday. Apart from the films, check out the awesome workshops, too!

A biopic on Anna May Wong! You can see why Macy’s wanted in on this.

I happened to catch The Warriors of Qiugang at another fest. Sounds like there’s going to be kung-fu fighting, right? But in reality it’s a documentary about poor residents in a community fighting an industrial plant and Chinese bureaucracy.

Hardcore! My Country Is Tibet is screening at the Museum of Chinese in America.

Jesus, they let just about everybody in this year!
